Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Down in the cellar with Dolly and Sue
Smoking fags and feeling cool
Talking to the guy who lives downstairs
Walking around in ridiculous flares
Back in the bushes, we find a cat
And we beat 'em up with a baseball bat
And grandma says we'll turn out bad
Go straight to Hell, just like dad
[Verse 2]
But don't get your hopes up high
The kid's all right
And don't get your hopes up high
The kid's all right
And don't get your hopes up high
[Verse 3]
Down in the cellar with Dolly and Sue
Falling in love and feeling blue
Flirting with the guy who lives downstairs
Walking around in ridiculous flares
Playing hooky, pretend we're sick
Mama don't care if it's just a trick
She just wishes she never had
Those kids from Hell who drive her mad
[Verse 4]
But don't get your hopes up high
The kid's all right
And don't get your hopes up high
The kid's all right
And don't get your hopes up high
[Verse 5]
Down in the cellar with Dolly and Sue
Smoking fags and feeling cool
Talking to the guy who lives downstairs
Walking around in ridiculous flares
Back in the bushes, we find a cat
And beat 'em up with a baseball bat
And grandma says we'll turn out bad
Go straight to Hell, just like dad
[Verse 6]
But don't get your hopes up high
The kid's all right
And don't get your hopes up high
The kid's all right
Now don't you think the kid's all right?
