Artist/Band: Soul Asylum
Lyrics for Song: Down On Up to Me
Lyrics for Album: Welcome To The Minority: The A&m Years 1988-1991 [2007]



He's a stranger to authority, welcome to the minority.

It's not someplace you have to go, it's not something you have to know.

Don't do this, don't touch that. Hey, draw the line

I'll speak my mind, maybe I'll wait for another time.

Sometimes you get close to those who wait,

Sometimes it makes you hesitate.

Some folks find more humanity, some folks find more than sanity.

Don't do this, don't do that, don't try this, don't do that,

Don't try this, don't touch that. Hey, do it for the last time.

By the weight of the world coming down, down on, down on up to me.

Down on up to me, wait for another time.

When you look down on me, I get so uppity,

Starting my own army, just me and my friends, said you better get ready. Hahaha.

Coming down, down on, down on up to me, down on up to me.

Coming down, down on, down on up to me, down on up to

Though it might just come down to trust,

It sometimes just comes down to lust, that's just one person's point of view.


Down On Up to Me

Soul Asylum's "Down On Up to Me" stands as a defining track from their 2007 compilation "Welcome To The Minority: The A&m Years 1988-1991," capturing the raw energy of their mid-90s rock era. The song exemplifies the band's signature blend of punk aggression and melodic hooks, featuring the iconic vocals of Jesse Malin and the driving guitar work of Brett Eldredge. Released during a period when the group was solidifying their status as a staple of the alternative rock scene, the recording showcases their ability to balance anthemic choruses with gritty, working-class themes. As part of their extensive discography from the late 80s through the early 90s, this track remains a powerful representation of the band's evolution and enduring influence on the genre.
