Oingo Boingo
Elevator Man
[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?
