Lyrics

Come on down, come on come on down guaranteed you're in the mood

Come on down, join us, and be assured that you're in a positive mood

This dead heart town is all a bit too rude

Referring to the town as lifeless and impolite

So come on down, alleviate the frown, guaranteed you're in the mood

Inviting someone to come down and improve their mood, promising relief from sadness

It's not a nasty trick I promise you

Assuring that the invitation is genuine and not a deceitful act


So I'll snap shut that door, to give you everything more

Closing the door metaphorically, giving everything without it making a difference

Won't mean shit as I settle the score

Actions taken won't matter as the speaker settles a score or resolves an issue

So I'll get my jacket and shoes, careless with nothing to lose

Preparing to leave with no concerns or attachments

It's ok, time marches slowly on

Expressing that it's okay, time passes slowly


So take off your t shirt

Instructing to remove a t-shirt, possibly symbolic of shedding something

And get out the neighbourhood

Encouraging to leave the current surroundings or situation

I gave you everything I had but

Conveying giving everything in the past

I'm only dreaming with my eyes shut

Suggesting a state of being lost in imagination with closed eyes


Come on down, come on come on down guaranteed you're in the mood

Repeated invitation with a guarantee of a positive mood

As misty mornings come a part of you

Describing misty mornings as a part of the person being addressed

Ignore the dance the over macho stance, guaranteed you're in the mood

Ignoring a dance or a macho attitude, promising a good mood

It's not a nasty trick I promise you

Reiterating that the invitation is genuine and not deceptive


So I'll snap shut that door, to give you everything more

Repeating the closing of the door metaphor, emphasizing insignificance

Won't mean shit as I settle the score

Actions taken won't matter as the speaker resolves issues or scores

So I'll get my jacket and shoes, careless with nothing to lose

Preparing to leave again, this time emphasizing a lack of concern

It's ok, time marches slowly on

Reassuring that it's okay, and time passes slowly


So take off your t shirt

Repeating the instruction to remove a t-shirt

And get out the neighbourhood

Reiterating the call to leave the current environment

I gave you everything I had but

Repeating the idea of giving everything in the past

I'm only dreaming with my eyes shut

Reiterating a state of dreaming with closed eyes


Just take off your t shirt

Repeating the instruction to remove a t-shirt

And get out of your neighbourhood

Repeating the call to leave one's neighborhood

I gave you everything I had but

Reiterating the idea of giving everything in the past

I'm only dreaming with my eyes, my eyes

Repeating a state of dreaming, emphasizing the fleeting nature of the experience

I'm only dreaming once in time

Emphasizing the rarity of the dreaming experience
