If you hear a song that's suitable for someone who is a downstat, find it on Youtube or wherever and post a link you it here.

I'll start with this one.

Outside of Gary Numan's album, Replicas, I can't find anything that connects him to $cientology.
Judging from the lyrics of his songs on that album, especially the bonus tracks added later,
I have to assume that if he was involved with $cientology he is no longer in good standing
with that organization.

Here are the lyrics to Only a Downstat:

ONLY A DOWNSTAT
by Gary Numan

Only a downstat
Personality problem
He would say things like 'I love you'
And cry real tears

Met him in some place
Like a home for old mothers
Where the cure is always death
But no-one ever leaves
He wore a number 7
Badge on his collar
He would show it with pride
And say 'It means I can feel'

He'd bribe the warders
To send letters to someone
Who didn't even know his name
But said she'd read them anyway

And in the evening
He writes poetry for people
Who deny he's alive
And say 'I'll mention that name'

A violator of the law of no feelings
They should be put in the chair
Until their eyes come in

If you have reasons
I might sell you my time
I'll leave it under the stairs
In a body of mine

Old memories are slowly fading out of me
We are the unknowns, we are all you need

That's pretty crazy. Sounds just like someone in the Sea Org.

One does not have to be so melodramatic about the downstats. There is a cure for them -- false upstat reporting (been there, done that).

When the stats are falling
Lie, lie, lie,
Inflate them, inflate them, inflate them.
Save yourself from RPF.

When the stats are OK
Lie, lie, lie,
Inflate them, inflate them, inflate them
So you could have ethics protection
And have as much sex as you want.

When the stats are excellent
Lie, lie, lie
Deflate them, deflate them, deflate them
So your workload won’t go up.
But it keep in mind
If you deflate them too much
You will lose ethics protection
And won’t be able to have as much sex as you want.

I think this one takes some inspiration from 'TRs.'

YOU ARE IN MY VISION
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bG7d5NTfbgc

This is self explanatory.
ME! I DISCONNECT FROM YOU
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnVDn2Y0aHE

Then there's this:
I'M PRAYING TO THE ALIENS
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-BQDQRL2Ys

While we're at it:
WE HAVE A TECHNICAL
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_x6xkOur9e8
