Though it isn't unpleasant, I must take issue with the opening lyric, "What goes up must come down." Although usually true, it is, in fact, only true in cases when the object in question, assuming it isn't self-propelled, lacks the required "escape velocity" to propel it out of Earth's gravitational pull. In such cases, that which goes "up" will continue indefinitely until it encounters another object or a gravitational field, whereupon it may descend to the surface of another body, although this could hardly be considered "coming down" in the same sense. If the object in question is of extraterrestrial origin, all definitions of "up" and "down" are, of course, essentially meaningless. Altogether, I prefer James Brown's live version from Sex Machine.
