[Intro]

Said, who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Yeow!

[Verse 1]

I ride my elevator

Through the shafts of your heart

When you climb aboard, baby

There's no getting off

I'm a silent operator

Won't you please take my hand?

I am so polite

I'm the Elevator Man

[Chorus]

Some friction and harmony

Who's gonna ride with me?

I'm the Elevator Man

[Verse 2]

Who's going down?

Who's comin' with me?

Who wants to take a chance

On a piece of abstract reality?

Huh! It's only just a dance

Won't you come and ride

With the Elevator Man?

[Chorus]

Said, who's going down, yeah?

Movin' slow without a sound

[Post-Chorus]

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

I said, who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

[Verse 3]

Please, pretty baby

Won't you come to me?

Won't you let me your daddy?

Come and sit here on my knee

And tell your sugar daddy

All of your fears

Cry for me, darlin'

Let me taste your tears

[Chorus]

As they roll down your face

And onto the sand

We're going down together

I'm the Elevator Man

Now we're movin' slow without a sound

Goin' up and goin' down

Take an intermission

While the bird is in the hand

It's worth two in the bush

So, give yourself a push

Won't you come and ride

With the Elevator Man?

[Post-Chorus]

I said, who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Ooh, I said, who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

[Bridge 1]

I said, who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's going?

I said, who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's going?

[Bridge 2]

Say goodbye to hate

Goodbye to love

Goodbye to the world

That you used to know above

Goodbye to your mama

And your daddy, too

We're goin' to a place

That you never even knew

[Chorus]

'Cause we're movin' slow without a sound

Goin' up and goin' down

Take an intermission

While the bird is in the hand

It's worth two in the bush

So, give yourself a push

Gonna take a ride with the Elevator Man

Friction and harmony

Who is gonna ride with me?

Far across the ocean

On a floating bed of sand

[Post-Chorus]

With eyes toward the empty sky

Searching for the big surprise

Who's gonna ride

With the Elevator Man?

[Outro]

Who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's going?

I said, who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's going?

I said, who's goin' down?

Who's goin' down?

Who's going?

I said, who's goin' down?
