Put Me On Top
|
|
I should be knocking on the door of the pearly gates
|
why keep a poor man alive in a job he hates
|
I've heard that good things will come to he who waits
|
I should be riding on a float in the hit parade
|
instead of sitting on the curb behind the barricade
|
another verse in the doormat serenade
|
|
Won't you put me on top
|
won't you put me on top, or change the odds
|
won't you put me on top
|
or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box
|
|
Oh, at least put some hope in the box for me
|
'cause it's only black and white and not a lot of each
|
there's a remote on the shelf, but it's out of reach
|
|
Won't you put me on top
|
won't you put me on top, or change the odds
|
won't you put me on top
|
or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box
|
|
Put some hope in the bottom of the box
|
I need it
|
