Goodnight to the high life
Goodnight to the skyline
Goodnight to the right time and place
And their mysterious ways
I’m inclined to
Cover up
But I, but I can’t be sure now
If the night can calm the riot in my mind
There’s something restless
That my thought police can’t hide
They’re afraid and they show it, sing me lullabies
And I don’t really know if I am
Upside down, upside down
My smile gets taken as a frown
If I’m upside down, upside down
Or the world is doing somersaults around me
(Goodnight) to the right time and place
And a past we can’t face
Hoping the singalong’s warm embrace
Will swap our secrets for sleep
I’d tell it all to anyone
But all that they keep telling me is
Goodnight to the high life
Goodnight to the skyline
Goodnight to the frown on your face
Everybody celebrates
They’re shooting fireworks if that’s what it takes
To keep up the choir
Is it much to ask, baby to talk about why are we
Upside down, upside down (Upside down)
My smile gets taken as a frown (As a frown)
If I’m upside down, upside down (Smile, smile!)
Or the world is doing somersaults around me (Upside down)
Goodnight to the high life
Goodnight to the lights and the buzz (Somersaults around me)
And you start to see the signs (Smile!)
Perhaps the “them” is just “us” (Somersaults around me)
Maybe you’ll find (Smile, smile!)
We love it, it’s our favourite stuff (Somersaults around me)
Perhaps the world is doing somersaults around all of us
