When life gets too hot to handle
I know a place where the people feel the same
I'm going underground

Down there no one
Is your enemy
Down there a girl
Never has to ask your name
I'm going underground

Oh, I know I'm gonna find her
And I know I'll never make her cry
Oh, I know that if I find her
I'm gonna make her mine

I'm gonna go underground
To find a world to make my own
I'm gonna go underground
To find a girl to call my own

To find a world to make my own
I'm gonna go underground
To find a girl to call my own

I'm going underground

That young one there by the subway door
Her dark red hair and her eyes of misty blue
I'm going underground
You're sweet sixteen
Feeling sad and blue
What a whole heart-cold
Singing need you coming more
I'm going underground

I don't ever wanna lose her
I don't ever wanna make her cry
But I know I'm gonna lose her
No matter how I try

To find a world to make my own
I'm gonna go underground
To find a girl to call my own

To find a world to make my own
I'm gonna go underground
To find a girl to call my own

And I know I'll never make her cry
Oh, I know that if I find her
I'm gonna make her mine

To find a world to make my own
I'm gonna go underground
To find a girl to call my own
