Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Last night the night before
Twenty-five robbers at my door
I got up and let 'em in
But I missed them all with a rolling pin
[Chorus]
All right, they took everything I own
Like a king down from his throne
I can't let it get me down
Yeah-ah-ah-ah
Change my smile into a frown
Oh hey, yeah
[Chorus]
I can't let it get me down
Change my smile into a frown
[Verse 2]
Just all about to send it South side
Even though I know you are tired, yeah
Now it's time for love again
Pain is found and finally went
[Chorus]
Took everything I own
Like a king down from his throne
I can't let it get me dow-ow-own, oh
Change my smile into a frown
[Chorus]
I can't let it get me down
Change my smile into a frown
[Verse 3]
All is fair in love and war
What are you fighting here for?
Time about to right just one
There's no cost and there's no fun
[Chorus]
Yeah, hey, hey
It'll never happen again
But it has to end
I can't let it get me down
Change my smile into a frown
[Chorus]
I can't let it get me down
Change my smile into a frown
[Outro]
I'm through
