I go up, you go down
I go in a straight line
You go round and round
I go over and under, you go through
Tell me why do you always do the opposite
of what I do?

I go left, you go right
I travel in the daytime
You prefer the night
Wherever I go away from, you go to
Tell me why do you always do the opposite
of what I do?

Well, when I come in honey, you go out
You’re sure of yourself and
I am filled with doubt
When I want more, you give me less
When I say no, you say
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
Honey, you hang loose
And I’m uptight
You know I’m heavy, baby
and you are light
When you stay false, how can I stay true?
Tell me why do you always do the opposite
of what I do?
