Lyrics
I saw you last night
My, my, how indiscreet (my my, baby, my my my)
Your self-destruction is so complete (my my, baby, my my my)
Oh yeah, and I know (yes, I know)
Yeah I know (yes, I really know)
That she's goin' down slow (my my, my my)
It was this morning that you phoned (ring ring, baby, ring ring ring)
You sound strung out, babe, but so high toned (so high toned, baby, when you phoned)
Well Lord, and I know (yes, I know)
Yeah I know (yes, I really know)
That she's goin' down slow (so slow, so slow)
You're the article babe
You're genuine thing
And when that guy comes by
With his diamond ring
It doesn't feel right
And you tell him so
So you buy your ticket home
And you're goin' down slow
And she's goin' down slow (my my, so slow)
I saw you last night
How indiscreet
Your self-destruction is so complete
Oh yeah, yeah I know
Yeah, I know, yeah I know, really know
That she's goin' down slow
It was this morning that you phoned (ring ring, baby, ring ring ring)
You sound strung out, babe, but so high toned (so high toned, yeah as she phones)
And I know (yes, I know)
And yes I know (yes, I really know)
That she's goin' down slow (so slow, so slow)
Wait a minute
What's this?
We're losing altitude
Hand over fist
And she's goin' down fast (my my)
Yeah she's goin' down fast (so fast)
She's goin' down fast (my my)
I thought she's goin' down slow
But it turns out that she's goin' down fast (so fast)
