Upstairs, downstairs, please shut up!

An expression used to inform someone they are behaving in a hyper or otherwise overactive manner (i.e. as in the metaphor “bouncing off the walls”) and your desire to have them tone it down a bit.

Marie: Upstairs, downstairs, please shut up!

Bobby: I’m sorry. Was I acting hyper again?
