Striped walls, you’re 10 feet tall Long and lean, oh you look so mean Switching places bouncing up and down And round and round Itching faces, mind’s a blazing You make me feel like I’m downtown Oooh ooh Two chords for two colors Don’t lose it’s touch Feeling happy feeling lousy it makes you feel like you’re downtown
