Yo La Tengo
Upside-Down
Mary calls from far away
Sure there is another
Walks the floor 'cause she can't settle down

Waiting for the phone to ring
Stuck inside the bedroom
Drinks too much to make the room spin round

When she sits down
No one knows the world is upside-down
Watches how it spins around
No one knows the world is upside-down

Knowing if she'll just admit
One revealing detail
She can't hide her state of mind behind

She sits down
No one knows the world is upside-down
Watches how it spins around
No one knows the world is upside-down

Everybody wants to be the lucky guy
They're just uncertain how to please her

Everybody stops to see the setting sun
They're not just looking for the time
Caring not what people say
At other people's parties
Mary finds someone and settles down

She sits down
No one knows the world is upside-down
Watches how it spins around
No one knows the world is upside-down
