6/22/2000 alternate lyrics

Big dog gets the bone
fat cat sits and licks at his paws
no one needs it all
strange though we like very much to
in the sweet up and down

Tickle in your throat
take back all you can that you wrote
dirty little girl
climb out of the hole in her own
little sweet up and down

I believe in love
but believe that it's love
that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
think it's just so fine
oh, the sweet up and down

Buried with the note
if you find it leave those alone
God's the selling point
and the great inventor of course
of the sweet up and down

I believe in love
but I believe that it's love
that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
think it's just so fine
oh, the sweet up and down

God don't worry about that one
I'm about to leave it all
and take it out
out of the things you wrote
I'm gonna leave all
you're just stuck on the
sweet up and down

I believe in love
but think nothing about it
when you're not around
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
oh, the sweet up and down

I believe in love
but believe that it's love
that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
oh, the sweet up and down
Sweet Up and Down
main lyrics
[scatting]

Big dog bites the bone
life's too short to take all this
not true, and what's more
life's too short to mind, just keep on
with the sweet up and down

Unturning her cheek
inside out, her meek little bones
dirty little girl
climbs out of the hole in her own
little sweet up and down

I believe in love
but believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
on the sweet up and down

[scatting]

Piggy turns to me
piggy needs to eat like us all
not far from the beast
man sits down to feast on this part
of the sweet up and down

I believe in love
and believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
on the sweet up and down
B.T.

Up and down, inside out
outside in some, you lose some you win for us all
up and down we go
bad times choke us all or twice
on the sweet up and down

I believe in love
but say nothing about it when you're not around
I believe in love
I think you're just fine
on the sweet up and down

I believe in love
but believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think you're just fine
on the sweet up and down
yeah, yeah
