[Verse 1]
Four o'clock in the afternoon and I didn't feel like very much
I said to myself, "Where are you golden boy, where is your famous golden touch?"
I thought you knew where all of the elephants lie down
I thought you were the crown prince of all the wheels in Ivory Town
Just take a look at your body now, there's nothing much to save
And a bitter voice in the mirror cries, "Hey, Prince, you need a shave."
Now if you can manage to get your trembling fingers to behave
Why don't you try unwrapping a stainless steel razor blade?

[Refrain]
That's right, it's come to this, yes it's come to this
And wasn't it a long way down?
Wasn't it a strange way down?

[Verse 2]
There's no hot water and the cold is running thin
Well, what do you expect from the kind of places you've been living in?
Don't drink from that cup, it's all caked and cracked along the rim
That's not the electric light, my friend, that is your vision growing dim
Cover up your face with soap there, now you're Santa Claus
And you've got a gift for anyone who will give you his applause
I thought you were a racing man, ah, but you couldn't take the pace
That's a funeral in the mirror and it's stopping at your face

[Refrain]
That's right, it's come to this, yes it's come to this
And wasn't it a long way down
Ah, wasn't it a strange way down?
