Gm
Burn down all your idols
Destroy your idols
Create a scene
There goes all your reason
It's helter skelter
It's not a dream
Come down from the altar
Remove your blindfold
What do you see?
Nothing left to do here
There's nothing new here
It's all the same

Chorus:
              F     E     D#
You're going down, down, down
                 Gm F# F
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
                 D
How low can you go?

Hare, Hare Krishna
Was that your sister?
A cover girl
A wasted primadonna
She lost her way here
She disappeared
Come back to your altar
And build a fire
It's getting cold
Nothing stops the rain here
There's not a soul here
You're all alone

Chorus

Here we go now

Kill the new religion
No inhibition
No alibi
Televised confession
A true obsession
Is on the rise
Miscommunication
Disinformation
A perfect waste
Bite the sacred apple
And suck the poison
Enjoy the taste

Chorus:
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
You're going down, down, down
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?

How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?
