When it's boy meets girl and it starts a fire
Two hearts burn with pure desire
A candle burns a midnight oil
Lust the love and raise the spoil

[Chorus]
When the girl goes down
That's the way I like it
When the wheel goes round
Neither one can fight it
Can't fight the lust
Can't find the truth
Ain't nothing you can do
When the girl goes down

Hollywood and Vine and a hundredth floor
All the wives there couldn't take it no more
Now standing on the ledge and faces truth
As she ate em up spit 'em up as time was through

[Chorus]

Misery loves company
Nothing you can do
When the girl goes down

I woke up this morning found the paper and read
The Hollywood police found a young man dead
No name, no face and no ID just no different from you and me

Mystery arrives in her strange world
And the story goes its boy meets girl

[Chorus x2]

Can't fight the lust
Can't find the truth
Ain't nothing you can do
When the girl goes down
