Well I don't want
Your high position
And I don't need
Your riches and fame
I got no use
For your way of thinkin'
'Cause it only leads
To trouble and shame
The way you talk
Jjust leaves me empty
The things you say,
They leave me cold
It ain't my place
To sit in judgment
But I hate to see
You growing so old
Down to the core,
Where we're all the same
Down to the core,
We need something to believe in
Down to the core,
It's a cryin' shame
You'll never make it alone
There's no relief
In your possessions
There's no relief
In what you own
And what you reap
In the coming future
Don't you know
It's only what you have sown
Down to the core,
It's an empty hole
Down to the core,
And there's nothin' at the bottom
Down to the core,
You're an empty soul
You'll never make it alone
There's no belief
In all your wisdom
There's no insurance
In what you know
'Cause what you know
Is gonna leave you nowhere
When you're standin'
At the end of the road
Down to the core,
You need somthin' real
Down to the core,
And there's only one solution
Down to the core,
Don't you really feel
You'll never make it alone
