[Verse 1]

Is it unfair?

Would you be aware

If I might catch you in a stare?

Now tell me if it's okay

If I walk past your door today

I'm runnin' out of happy things to say

[Pre-Chorus]

But I don't need a funny line

'Cause nobody laughs at a castle that's crumbling down

With every word you—

Every game you—

Every ha-ha-hate

[Chorus]

Come on now, tell me

Would it be a better day for you

If you bring me down?

[Verse 2]

You got your coat and tie

And you're lookin' so cool in front of the TV camera (Yeah, yeah-yeah)

All that just to tell us we'll be gone

Now tell me, is it all okay

If I tell you you're a fuckin' gay?

Don't anyone have a happy thing to say?

[Pre-Chorus]

But I don't need a funny line

'Cause nobody laughs at a castle that's crumbling down

With every word you—

Every game you—

Every ha-ha-hate

[Chorus]

Come on now, tell me

Would it be a better day for you

If you bring me down?

[Bridge]

(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)

Kill me a little

Kill me a little every day

[Verse 3]

Is it unfair (Is it unfair)

Oh, to be aware? (Oh, to be)

Ever I might catch you in a stare?

[Pre-Chorus]

But I don't need a funny line

'Cause nobody laughs at my castle that crumbles down

With every word you, every game you

Every ha-ha-hate

[Chorus]

Come on now, tell me

Would it be a better day for you

If you bring me down? (Oh, oh, oh, oh)

Why don't you tell me

Would it be a better day for you

If you bring me down?

[Outro]

Bring me down (Bring me down)

Bring me down (Bring me down)

Bring me down (Oh, ah)
