==Interpretation==
At first glance, this song can be seen as a recounting of "The Ups and Downs" of being in a relationship. But, with the added context of the Jerry Seinfeld sketch, the song can be seen as a person's internal struggle between being an adult and being a child, a theme that is repeated multiple times throughout the album. This struggle is best exemplified through the final breakdown of the song, in which there is a back and forth between disliking both up and down.
