Butch Walker - Get Down

This is a song about coming to terms with becoming a celebrity. It's almost an autobiography of Butch Walker in a way.

So you had a lot of friends
Big black Benz
Rokken like Dokken till the party ends
Pink champagne, can't complain
Everyone's there for you
Messed up hair, messed up nose
Cocaine habit that no one knows about
Even though the lies get told, everybody knows the truth
Chorus:
Can you get down?
I don't want to be around when you come Get down
Get your feet back on the ground
Can you get down?
You ain't acting like you're supposed to
When you fall down
Will it even make a sound?
Coz you're a boom batter and your wallet's getting fatter, fatter
Livin' for yourself thinkin' no one else will even matter
Skeezin' and you sneezing you're allergic to the normal crowd
I heard you were from Cartersville, God Don't say that too loud!
So afraid they're gonna know, that you gonna show that
You're normal. Normal? Normal. Shit I better start a fight, overdose, date a model, I suppose then everything'll be alright.
Repeat Chorus until end.

I heard you were from Cartersville, God! Don't say that too loud!.. hehe, Cartersville is smaller than St. Marys.. I go thru there sometimes when I'm up in north Georgia.
