Lyrics

[Intro]
Me and Lucifer, Lucifer and me
[Verse 1]
Just like the angel that fell
Banished forever to Hell
Today have I been expelled
From high school Heaven
[Chorus]
Elevator going down, going down, going down
Everybody going down, going down, going down
[Bridge]
High school dropouts, don't give up
Dial OR7-7390 for our free booklet, telling how you can get it at home
[Verse 2]
This is my doom, my humiliation
October, not June and it's summer vacation
Such a disgrace, how can I face the nation?
Why should this pain bring me such strange elation?
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
Everybody going down, going down, going down
Everybody going down, going down, going down
[Bridge]
Emancipation Proclamation
Oh, Dr. Lincoln, my head needs shrinkin'
Lu-Lu-Lu-Lu-Lu-Lu-Lu, Lu-Lu-Lu-Lu-Lu-Lu-Lu-Lucifer and me
Doomed from here to eternity
Bah
[Chorus]
Everybody going down, down, down, going down
Everybody going down, down, down, going down
[Outro]
Down, down, everybody going
Down, down, everybody going
Down, down, everybody going
Forgive me if I don't cry
Down, down, everybody going
It's like the Fourth of July
Down, down, everybody going
Thank God that angels can fly
Down, down, down
Going down, down, down
Going down, down, down
Going down
