7/12/2000 alternate lyrics

big dog got the bone
buried in his heart with your bowl
go now and he's gone
girl fights back to turn up the hole
of the sweet up and down

dirty little girl
climbs out of the hole in her heart
unturning her cheek
bent over like pigs in the park
on the sweet up and down

i believe in love
but think nothing about it
when you're not around
i believe in love
i think it's so right
on the sweet up and down hey

preacher selling hope
children know much better than this
no thing goes untold
just the word as simple alone
on the sweet up and down

i believe in love
but said nothing about it
when it's not around
i believe in love
think its just so fine
oh the sweet up and down
bt

i'm just going to lean
i know that you win some you lose some
in life on your own
gods the selling point
and the great inventor of course
of the sweet up and down

i believe in love
but think nothing about it
when it's not around
i believe in love
think it's rolling on
on the sweet up and down

i believe in love
and believe that it's love
when it's turning round
i believe in love
think it's just alright
on the sweet up and down
Sweet Up and Down
main lyrics
[scatting]

Big dog bites the bone
life's too short to take all this
not true, and what's more
life's too short to mind, just keep on
with the sweet up and down

Unturning her cheek
inside out, her meek little bones
dirty little girl
climbs out of the hole in her own
little sweet up and down

I believe in love
but believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
on the sweet up and down

[scatting]

Piggy turns to me
piggy needs to eat like us all
not far from the beast
man sits down to feast on this part
of the sweet up and down

I believe in love
and believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
on the sweet up and down
B.T.

Up and down, inside out
outside in some, you lose some you win for us all
up and down we go
bad times choke us all or twice
on the sweet up and down

I believe in love
but say nothing about it when you're not around
I believe in love
I think you're just fine
on the sweet up and down

I believe in love
but believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think you're just fine
on the sweet up and down
yeah, yeah
