(One, two, three, four)
I saw you last night
My my, how indiscreet
(My my, baby my my my)
Your self-destruction is so complete
(My my, baby my my my)
Oh yeah, and I know
(Yes I know)
Yeah I know
(Yes I really know)
Yeah I know, that she's going down slow
(My my, my my)

It was this morning that you phoned
(Ring ring, yeah yeah, ring ring ring)
You sound strung out, babe, but so high toned
(So high toned, baby when you phoned)
And I know
(Yes I know)
Yeah I know
(Yes I really know)
That she's going down slow
(So slow, so slow)
Yeah

You're the article, babe
You're the genuine thing
And when that guy comes by
With his diamond ring
It doesn't feel right
And you tell him so
So you buy your ticket home
And you're going down slow

I'm just going down slow
Yeah

I saw you last night, how indiscreet
Your self-destruction is so complete
Oh yeah, and I know, yeah I know
Yeah I know, really know
That she's going down slow

It was this morning that you phoned
(Ring ring, baby baby, ring ring ring)
You sound strung out, babe, but so high toned
(So high toned, your soul-searching bones)
And I know, yes I know
Yes I know
That she's going down slow
Oh

Wait a minute!
What's this?
We're losing altitude hand over fist
And she's going down fast
