Two up two down terrace town, heading far away   Well I just deserted but I've seen that road before   Two up two down terrace town, roll on salad days   Well I'm a mighty lorne greene to mow   Oh oh! better let me grow   You're bringing me up, holding me down   The looks, the sighs and the frowns   So this time I'm on my own!   It's eyes down look in but don't you ever turn back   (back to front in the back to backs) and it's no big deal   From a heartless jack   Who keeps cheating the cards   And splitting the deck   You're bringing me up, holding me down   The looks, the sighs and the frowns   So this time I'm on my own!   Just watch me go   Too up too down terrace town, numbing all the senses   Well I just left home but I've seen that porch before   Well, I'm too up too down terrace town, leaning on defences   But I'm a ruddy lorne greene to mow so now   You'd better let me grow   You're bringing me up, holding me down   Stick in the mud, face in the ground   So this time I'm on my own   Oh this time I'm on my own   Building you up   Pulling me down   Sick of the glares, the flair's and the browns   So this time I'm on my own   Oh this time I'm on my own.   Too up too down   Too up two down
