Throw it on the floor   Never mind the mess   'Cause I've been down before   And it doesn't hurt      Play your saddest songs   Play them all night long   'Cause I've been sad before   And it doesn't hurt no more   Yeah, it doesn't hurt      Feeling like a fallen foster child   Gracefully neglected   But always with a smile   That was nothing at all      Raised upon a bench of second-best   Always quite aware   You're not like all the rest   That was nothing at all      Throw it on the floor   Never mind, the ma did that   Been down before   Yes, I've been down before   And it doesn't hurt no more   Now it doesn't hurt
