Underlying depression, have to crawl into my room
   Underlying depression don't want to know about the moon in June
   Outside there's a cavalcade of clowns but they`re bringing me down
   With underlying depression
  
   Underlying depression and it's starting in my backyard
   Underlying depression, and these times ain't even so hard
   Lord I was born with the blues and my blue suede shoes
   And underlying depression
  
   Underlying depresslon and there's ust nowhere to turn
   Underlying depression and things just seem to turn in on one
   Sometimes I'm stuck in the corner just like Little Jack Horner
   With underlying depression
  
   Underlying depression and I just can't get it right
   Underlying depression I've got to fight it with all of my might
   Right now I don't want to be alone
   Get my baby on the telephone
   Underlying depression
  
   Have to make some concessions when everything is working right
   Have to count my blessings, helps me make it through the night
   I've got love in my life as well as trouble and strife
   And underlying depression
  
   Underlying depression, underlying depression, underlying depression
   Ain't nothing but the blues
   Underlying depression ain't nothing but the blues
   Underlying depression, ain't nothing but the blues
   Underlying depression
