I may be down 
But things are looking up 
All the grass is turning brown 
But things are looking up 
I don't have a white picket fence 
But things are looking up 
Happiness is a good league hence 
But things are looking up 
The sting reminding me 
At least it seems to be 
That I am fiery 
And must be burning burning 
Upon the wind 
You take your medicine 
Whether I lose or win 
I hope I'm learning learning 
Take all you want 
I don't care 
And I'll look up if 
I am down a share 
We never promised we'd play fair 
It's a lonely town 
But things are looking up 
A hard old rain is falling down 
But things are looking up 
Im in a pile of leaves and 
I've got no rake 
But things are looking up 
So giveth unto me a break 
Cause things are looking up 
The sting reminding me 
At least it seems to be 
That I am fiery 
And must be burning burning 
Upon the wind 
You take your medicine 
Whether I lose or win 
I hope I'm learning learning 
Take all you want 
I don't care 
And I'll look up if 
I am down a share 
We never promised we'd play fair 
Hands in my pocket eyes on the ground 
Just like a storm cloud walking all over town 
Dreams in the gutter spirits on the floor 
Hope's in the dumpster but there's always room for more 
I may be down 
But things are looking up 
All the grass is turning brown 
But things are looking up 
The sting reminding me 
At least it seems to be 
That I am fiery 
And must be burning burning 
Upon the wind 
You take your medicine 
Whether I lose or win 
I hope I'm learning learning 
Take all you want 
I don't care 
And I'll look up if 
I am down a share 
We never promised we'd play fair
