Kinks - Don't Lyrics
Walking round this metropolisWith its buildings that reach to the cloudsThere must be millions of people out thereWalking round with their heads bowedThis city kills me, but it thrills meNow somethings gone and held up the crowdTheyre pointing at a man standing high on a ledgeAnd somebody just cried out loudDont look down at the people below, ohDont look downIts a long way to fall and Id sure like to knowWhat made it happen, sure makes you thinkMust have been something specialTo send him to the brinkDown here on the sidewalk, hes clearly in viewThen a voice shouts up to himTry thinking it through but whatever you doChorus:Dont look downAt the people below, ohDont look down, things might start looking upYou just never knowHes heard the cries of the lunatics facing defeatThe cheers of the winnersWho are dancing in the streetPerhaps the crime and corruption finally got throughAnd the violence of the cityJust broke him in twoNow a voice from the queue shoutsChorusDont look down, dont look downDown here on the sidewalkIts stopped all our livesPeople are talking instead of just walking byBefore this happened it was just another dayNow people are talking instead of walking awayNow were gripped by this tragedyOur blood starts to pump as we all shout togetherDont jump, dont jumpChorusDont look down, we all shouted out, ohDont look downIts a long way to fall and Id sure like to knowWhat made it happen, guess well never knowNow the suns come outLooks like hes standing on a rainbowHes in the heavens, Im standing on the groundSaying dont look down
