How come I didn't see you were making fun of me? How dare you change the rules. You made me look a fool. Well now you're gonna see the last laugh's not on me. What am I gonna do to get my revenge on you? You're goin' down. Goin' down. Was it just another line or did I misread the sign? What else could I do? I was so into you. With all this bad luck I've had my karma must be bad. You played your little game, oh what a shame. You're goin' down. Goin' down, goin' down. I'm singin' it loud and I don't care. I'm singin' it proud everywhere. Now I feel no remorse, my life is back on course. From this little hitch I have become a superbitch. But don't be afraid by the confession I have made. I am not a whore. I have gone hardcore. You're goin' down. Goin' down. Goin' down. Goin' down. I'm singin' it loud and I don't care. I'm singin' it proud everywhere. I'm singin' it loud and I don't care. I'm singin' it proud everywhere, ha, ha, ha. You're goin' down. Goin' down. You're goin' down. Goin' down, ha, yeah.
