Ups and downs

sorenbarrett

Walk down the road and up the street

What was beat down is now upbeat

out of downtown and into uptown

Once beat up now beat down

My car broke down now broke up

To shut down the store that had been shut up

I’m already tied up, don't tie me down

Everything is up side down
