Lyrics:

(Down, down, down, down gravity)

Helpin' wash the dishes
And I drop a cup
Why does everything fall down
Instead of up?
Ridin' up a hill I spill
And hit the ground
Wish I could fall up instead of always falling down

(Down, de-down, down, down)

I'm a victim of gravity. (Oh, yeah)
Everything keeps fallin' down on me. (Down, down, down)
No matter where I go
That force is there I know
Just a pullin' me down, down, down, down, down
(It's all around town now)
It's like a magnet deep inside the ground
When I lift something up
I can feel it pulling down

It pulls me in the pool
It pulls rain down on me
I'm a victim of
Down, down, down, down, gravity, yeah

(Galileo, Galileo) Galileo, Galileo, Galilei
(Galileo, Galileo) He did experiments with a force he couldn't see
(Could not see, yeah)
(Galileo, Galileo) He found that all things fall to earth at the very same speed
(Very same speed, yeah)
(Galileo, Galileo) He didn't know it yet, but that was due to gravity
The Moon goes 'round the Earth
And shines its silver light
The Earth goes 'round the Sun
And makes the seasons right
It isn't love that makes the world go round, you see
It's the power of gravity
But please don't tell Mary Jean
(Down, de-down, down, down)

Without Earth's gravity
To keep us in our place
We'd have no weight at all
We'd be in outer space
The sea would float away
And so would fields and towns
Nothin' pullin' us down, down, down, down, down, yeah

Isaac Newton underneath the apple tree
(Apple tree, yeah)
One hit him on the head
He said, 'That must be gravity!'

Newton's Law of Gravity says that every object in the universe pulls on every other object. The bigger the object, the stronger the pull. But the greater the distance between the objects, the weaker the pull becomes.

Come back, Mary Jean!

Don't call me clumsy
Don't call me a fool
When things fall down on me
I'm following the rule
The rule that says that what goes up, comes down, like me
I'm a victim of down, down, down, down gravity

Sho-be doo, down, down, down
