The clock is striking midnight,
and it's over none too soon
I can hear the angry voices
And you, you're sitting lonely,
and the night is growing still
You think that you won't make it through,
but I know you always will
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it turn you round
Don't let it get you down
The smells excite your senses
And you wish that it would stop
But it's only more intensified
By the pounding of the clock
How long will this go on?
How much longer will it be till your
Don't let it get you down,
don't let it turn you around
Don't let it get you down, carry on
Don't let it get you down,
don't let it turn you around
Don't let it get you down, carry on
The whole thing seems so senseless,
but there's nothing you can do
You couldn't find a way out,
And it's all made more confusing,
by the rumbling of the floor
The band keeps playing on and on
As you stumble for the door
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it turn you round
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it turn you round
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it turn you round
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it turn you round
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down,
