THE BOTTOM

The Bottom

If you wanna sink to the bottom with me
Come get gotten, reelin' and rotten beneath
1, 2, 3 and down you go
You'll be smilin' before you know
If you wanna sink to the bottom with me

[Chorus]
We're all rotten, buried and forgotten
Livin' it up underground
So take a ride
HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY!
You really can't be lookin' so surprised
If you can't beat them, might as well eat them
No one's gettin' out alive
Give it a try
HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY!
It really is a wicked way to die

Listen my friend to the sound of a sweet melody
Doesn't it seem to resound like an old memory?
Screamin' and cryin' we'll have none of that
Yoy had your chance now just sit and relax
Don't you wanna sink to the bottom with me?

[Chorus]
We're all rotten, buried and forgotten
Living it up underground
So take a ride
HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY!
You really can't be looking so surprised
If you can't beat them, might as well eat them
No one's gettin' out alive
Give it a try
HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY!
It really is a wicked way to die

You'll get used to it in a while
Look at the way each of us smile
You were livin' a fantasy
This is exactly what you need

Don't you wanna sink to the bottom with me?
You're getting real gotten, reelin' and rotten beneath
1, 2, 3 and down you go
Feel that smile just start to grow
If you wanna sink to the bottom

[Chorus]
We're all rotten, buried and forgotten
Living it up underground
So take a ride
HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY!
You really can't be looking so surprised
If you can't beat them, might as well eat them
No one's gettin' out alive
So give it a try, try, try, try
It really is a wicked way, it really is a wicked way,
It really is a wicked way to die

They're all just so pathetic
It's all psychosomatic
The more they think the more we know
So welcome home

This part reminds me of my teens years and tripping too much acid.

Don't you wanna sink to the bottom with me?

Feel that smile just start to grow

This songs really amazing.

It kinda has an MCR sorta of sound to it.
But not in a bad way...its really good.

I listen to the album on the way to work. And just as I was walking through the door at work the song ended and I heard the last line: "So Welcome Home..." Now how's that for depressing, if I loved my work well OK (but still sad...), but I really don't...

Still love the song though!

Honestly, I don't believe I've ever had a Whopper and I probably never will.

To be on topic: Leo tried posting about this song in another thread and mentioned zombies, and I just wanted to say the thought of Zombies has crossed my mind before while listening to this song.

I think most people generally think of zombies when you're talking of things that are rotten and underground.

Or maybe rotten food... ew.

Yeah, I thought of zombies...
Just cause of this part:
"If you can't beat them, might as well eat them"

Haha, this songs so much fun

what do you suppose this song is about?

(ALso putting this in Ask the Band) ..does anyone know like, a double meaning to the lyrics of "The Bottom"? I envision a zombie take over (being song by the queen zombie- which me, when I sing it )....consider the lyrics, and you see!!! Or at least have a good laugh thinking about it
