Lyrics Taking It To The Top - Chris De Burgh

Taking It To The Top

Every now and then I hear a song I used to know,
Playing late at night on radio,
And I remember when the schooldays finally had to end,
We were neatly wrapped and sent off in a row;
To be champions of the world,
We can take on anyone,
Nothings going to keep us from the door;
Were taking it to the top — oh yes indeed we are,
Weve come this far,
Were taking it to the top — oh yes indeed we will,
Weve got the skill,
Were taking it to the top, hitting them from the heart,
Too late to stop, right from the start,
Up to the top, giving it all weve got,
To the top of the hill right now!
Working on the window of a boardroom in the sky,
Business men in suits go flying by,
Theyre heading for the greatest day that they have ever seen,
Selling bridges to the japanese;
We are the champions of the world,
We can take on anyone,
Nothings going to keep us on the floor;
Were taking it to the top — oh yes indeed we are,
Weve come this far,
Were taking it to the top — oh yes indeed we will,
Weve got the skill,
Were taking it to the top, hitting them from the heart,
Too late to stop, right now!
Taking it to the top — oh yes indeed we are,
Weve come this far,
Were taking it to the top — oh yes indeed we will,
Weve got the skill,
Were taking it to the top, hitting them from the heart,
Too late to stop, once we have started,
To the top, giving it all weve got,
To the top of the hill right now, right now!
