Stay Down Here Where You Belong Lyrics

Stay Down Here Where You Belong lyrics

Down below, down below
Caught the devil talking to his son
Who wanted to
go up above, up above
He cried, "It's getting to warm for me down here
and so,
I'm going up to Earth where I can have a little fun."
The
devil slowly smiled and then he answered his son

*Chorus*
"Stay
down here where you belong
The folks who live above you don't know right
from wrong
To please their king, they've all gone out to war
And not one
of them knows what he's fighting for
Way up above they say that I'm a devil
and I'm bad
Kings up there are bigger devils than your dad
Breaking the
hearts of mothers, making butchers of their brothers
You'll find more heat
up there than there is down below"

"Kings up there, they don't
care
For the mothers who must stay at home, their troubles to bear
Stay at
home, don't you roam
Although it's warm down here, it's warmer up there
If
you go way up there, my son, I know you'll be surprised
You'll find a lot of
people who are not civilized"

*Chorus*
