lyrics

I'm not an elevator
I can not lift you off the ground
I'm not a elevator
I can not pick you up when you are down

You live in the basement
Clad in rags soaked in greases and oils
Light? There's not a trace, man
So your skin's covered in festering boils

I live in the penthouse
Festooned in silk pajamas and spats
Gold guilds every surface
I got a swimming built just for my cats

I can't take you to the executive suite
if you can't even pick get yourself back on your feet
You've sunk low, so low

I'm not an elevator
You cannot push my buttons down
Oh, my cable's come unwound
Just let the doors close and don't make a sound

-Jeff Badger, 2011
