"Down For The Count" in lyrics

ALL WOMEN down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em

I know tonight somebody's gonna win the fight So if you're so tough, come on and prove it You heart is down for the count And you know you're gonna lose it

and I’m able to die clumsily, my bitter feelings fading too Lo-lo-love, ra-ta-ta I hate it, I hate it, it’s the worst–I burst into tears and I’m down for the count

So you'd think I was down for the count Like I'd settle for a curtain call I'm digging in, show you what it's about How I get up every time I fall

But I found out that I can move a mountain of doubt Even when you bitches are countin' me out And I appear to be down for the count Only time I ever been out and about

Rest in pieces, down for the count. No revival, you're bleedin' out. Your epitaph says you died a wealthy man, But you can have it all come back and

Then you covered my heart in kisses I was down for the count I was down, I was out

[Verse 1] Down for the count When will I have it together?

Back, back, back from the dead tonight Deep down, for the count, don't you dare cut me out Never break, never bow

I'll make it sound (Sound), sound like a vampire's bitin' it (Bitin' it) But I'd have to be Dracula's sidekick (Sidekick) To be down for the count (Haha), yeah Yo, album's (What?), out (Yeah), now (Uh)

One time to shine And when you're down for the count And you lost all your will to survive

I was down for the count Feeling like I've come to the end Nothing really mattered Nothing left for me to meant

I shoulda loved ya Going down for the count Now I'm in but you are out

With somebody else Every time we're stuck in struggle, I'm down for the count that day Every time I dream of quick fix I'm assuaged

So call this Pryor-rhea: I doo doo on you constantly No pauses in my punchlines, no commas in my comedy You'll be down for the count when this counter-culture counterman Serves you with a stand-uppercut you can't counter, damn

But what the fuck is all this trash-talkin' about? The fight was fixed, I'm back and you can't stop me You knocked me down, I went down for the count I fell, but the fans caught me, and now

My grandma just died, I'm the man of the house So every morning I'm up 'cause I can't let them down, down Always down for the cause, never down for the count I guess when your stars align, you do like the solar system and plan it out

handle up on his own Can't depend on friends to help you in a sqeeze, please they got problems of their own Down for the count on seven chickens shits don't get to heaven til they faced these fears in these fear

I think you're a hater, I think you're a hater Haters everywhere we go, haters everywhere we go Haters everywhere we go, where we go, haters goin down for the count

Just can't take it, take it no more I was down for the count, needed healing All the cuts to my heart, they were bleeding
