too up, two down

two up two down terrace town

heading far away

well i just deserted but i've seen that road before

two up two down terrace town

roll on salad days

well i'm a mighty lorne greene to mow

oh oh! better let me grow

you're bringing me up

holding me down

the looks

the sighs and the frowns

so this time i'm on my own!

it's eyes down look in but don't you ever turn back

and it's no big deal

from a heartless jack

who keeps cheating the cards

and splitting the deck

you're bringing me up

holding me down

the looks

the sighs and the frowns

so this time i'm on my own!

just watch me go

too up too down terrace town

numbing all the senses

well i just left home but i've seen that porch before

well

i'm too up too down terrace town

leaning on defences

but i'm a ruddy lorne greene to mow so now

you'd better let me grow

you're bringing me up

holding me down

stick in the mud

face in the ground

so this time i'm on my own

oh this time i'm on my own

building you up

pulling me down

sick of the glares

the flair's and the browns

so this time i'm on my own

oh this time i'm on my own. too up too down

too up two down
