The Upside of Being Down

I don't have to put on makeup
I don't have to do my hair
And when I open up that Hagen Das
I don't have to share
And there's no one there to notice
If I gain a couple pounds
And that's the upside of bein' down

I've got twice the closet space
That I can fill up with new shoes
And I can paint the bedroom pretty pink
With lacy curtains if I choose
And I won't have to deal with fishing gear
Muddy boots layin' 'round
And that's the upside of bein' down

Days when I'm feelin' low
Yeah, I got 'em
When my tears won't stop fallin' to the ground
But there's only one place left to go
When you're at the bottom
And that's the upside of bein' down

I can let my dog jump on the bed
And curl up next to me at night
I don't have to lose an argument
'Cause now I'm always right
And I can dance with who I want to
When I go out on the town
And that's the upside of bein' down

Days when I'm feelin' low
Yeah, I got 'em
When my tears won't stop fallin' to the ground
But there's only one place left to go
When you're at the bottom
And that's the upside of bein' down

Yeah, that's the upside of bein' down
