Gravity (Reg Mombassa) - Gravity begins as almost a novelty song about the obvious dangers to humans from gravitational attraction in terms of falling. It then shifts gear to present gravity as a metaphor for romantic obsession and then as an analogue for mental illness.

Lyrics

Gravity
(Reg Mombassa)
Gravity gets you down  It pulls you to the ground  Keep us in a state of fear of falling  I said to Newton I said to Einstein  All the things that weigh us down  Are just as you described  Oh gravity make us all fall down Bang bang on the ground  Keep us in a state of fear of falling  You keep us in a state of falling  Whoa gravity you’ve been spinning me round Who a gravity you’ve been dragging me down Gravity make us all fall down  Bang bang on the ground  Keep us in a state of fear of falling  You keep us in a state of falling  When you fall you don’t float Like a feather on the breeze  All you do is fall into a big black hole Gravity is everywhere  There’s nowhere you can hide Even when you’re sleeping  She will weigh upon your mind  Oh gravity make us all fall down  Bang bang on the ground  Keep us in a state of fear of falling  You keep us in a state of falling  Whoa gravity you’ve been spinning me round Whoa gravity you’ve been dragging me down
