          G             D   C   Em
I've been going through hell
         G           D   C   Em
And it's starting to tell
      G            D   C   Em
Wanna stand up and yell
         G     D           C  Em
I wish I had a soul to sell

All I see is down on me
I don't need down on me
Everybody is down on me
Get out of my tree, stop crowding me

Ain't it always the way
How people treat you today
Fuck you over and say
"Now go and have a real nice day!" 

They must be down on me
Can't you see down on me
I don't need them down on me
Let me breathe, stop drowning me

They must be down on me
He and she down on me
My family is down on me 
Even Mr. T is down on me!

'Cos I'm doing it tough 
I thought of turning to drugs
But there is never enough
To keep my problems beneath the rug

L.S.D.   down on me               
P.C.P.	 down on me
T.H.C.   down on me
M.S.G.   down on me
X.T.C.   down on me
F.A.B.	 down on me
R.I.P.	 down on me
M.T.V.   go down on me
