Like I got my cake and ate it
Only I know just how easy it was
To step into the escalator
And go down...down...down

Everybody knows I''m guilty
Down...down...down
Everybody knows about me

How could you believe such a plastic face
So studied and lacking in feeling
I know you''d believe me if I told you
I slipped and was sent reeling
Down...down...down

Everybody knows I''m guilty
Down...down...down
Everybody knows about me
Except you!

It''s only a problem
If it''s something you can''t live without
It''s only a problem
If you''re filled up to your neck with doubt
It''s never a problem
To lie and lie and lie about

Everyone saw the lines on my face
Like they were penciled in with charcoal
I even half-expected you to give me a shove
When I dived into that hole
And went down...down...down

Everybody knows I''m guilty
Down...down...down
Everybody knows about me
