Текст песни: Haven't Been Down + перевод

These walls are 'specially thin

I guess I paid for the room that I’m in Hear the neighbors fight in the hall

Turn up this song 'til someone bangs on the wall

«Hey! cut that out!�? «hey! turn that down!�?

I said, «what's up? how’s it goin'? what’s been happening my man? yo!�?

But what I really meant to say was just «hello�?

I said, «things been good, things been great, I’ve been having a good time!�?

When you asked me how I was

Actually I’m fine

I have not been down

I have not been down

The train goes by this complex

At a quarter to four and a quarter to six

I guess I’m just sluggish tonight

I slept through the rain, the alarm, and the neighbors' fights

I have not heard a sound

Either someone’s out washing their car

Or I hope it isn’t raining too hard

I’ve got a plastic plant in my room

They don’t let you have real ones 'cause I guess they pollute

I really love this cool time of year

I really wish you’d wish you were here

I’m either 15 minutes late and I’ll whine

Or maybe for a change the clock is on time

Either someone’s out there singing in the rain

Or they’re taking a bath while getting air play

Either someone’s out there smiling or the sun’s out there

Either you folks bought me a new car

Or the rain washed it and you don’t care

When I wake I guess I’ll call sick and play hurt

It’s too perfectly fine morning to waste at work

I don’t like to complain but these are the facts

I’d rather eat spam than pay the tax

I have not been down, I have not been down

I have not been down, I have had a little luck

I have not, I have not, I have not been down.. .

I just have not been up
