The sky is one up
The earth is one down
And some set out to keep the score
Is this what makes the world go round

Now your heart is one up
Mine is one down
Cause I saw you with him
On the up side of town

Today the circus is one up
Ticket in my hand is one down
It was just my luck
I was mistaken for one of their clowns

Your cotton candy smile is one up
My hot tomales are one down
He kisses you and whispers buttercup
I wave for a taxi to exit the up side of town

The clouds are one up
The rain is one down
Now I'm on the wrong street
Back on the up side of town
