Put Me On Top |
I should be knocking at 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 standing on the curb behind the barricade |
Another verse in the doormat serenade |
Won’t you put me on top (oooh, put me on top) |
Won’t you put me on top or change the odds |
Won’t you put me on top (oooh, 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 (oooh, put me on top) |
Won’t you put me on top or change the odds |
Won’t you put me on top (oooh, 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 for me |
I need it |
(Oooh, put me on top) |
Won’t you put me on top (oooh, put me on top) |
Won’t you put me on top or change the odds |
Won’t you put me on top (oooh, put me on top) |
Or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box |
Put me on (oooh, put me on top) |
Won’t you put me on top again (change the odds) |
Or at least put some hope (oooh, put me on top) |
Put some home in the bottom of the box |
Oh, at least put some hope in the bottom of the box |
