Elevator, operator
Looks at me and smiles that weary smile
I´m sure my looks could easily deceive
The very wisest of them all
And he says,

"Are you goin´ to the penthouse
Or the condo that lies just beyond
The chapel door?"
I smile back and softly tell him, "No,
I´m headed to the bottom"

I´m goin´ all the way down
To the bottom
So turn the music up real high
And let the sweetest Bénédictine liqueur flow
No need to worry
About tomorrow, ´cause you´re not there
I´m goin´ all the way down
To the bottom

Rainy streets and wet memories
Have found a place inside to pass the time
And Pete serves up my whiskey cold

And I drink it, and pray the picture fades
Dressed in black, you turned your back
And broke a heart that loved and loved you so
Oh I loved you so
The bells rang on the day we died
And I headed straight to the bottom

I´m goin´ all the way down
To the bottom
So turn the music up real high
And let the sweetest Bénédictine liqueur flow
There´s no need to worry
About tomorrow, ´cause you´re not there
I´m goin´ all the way down
To the very bottom
I´m goin´ all the way down
All the way down
To the bottom
