I’M ON TOP

There’s something in the air tonight,
The skies are clear, the stars are bright.
The world has changed, it’s upside down,
In the wind I hear a different sound,
The leaves are falling and it’s only spring,
The phone is calling, but it doesn’t ring,
Everything’s strange and I’m wondering,
What’s going on around here?

This morning I was very small,
I couldn’t walk, I could only crawl,
The world seemed very hard to me,
And life was still a mystery.
It’s brighter now, it’s somehow changed.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
I took the risk and now I tell the tale,
Of how this came to be.

Chorus
I’m on top,
I’m on top.
I’m on top of the world and I’m number one,
Write a letter to my mother and tell her that
I’m on top,
I’m on top.
I’m on top of the world and I’ll never stop,
Send an SMS to all my friends and tell them that
I’m on top.

So if you’re ever wondering,
What to be, how to win,
Be good, keep calm and never stop,
There’s never any easy way to the top.
Study hard, take your breaks,
Play your cards, whatever it takes
To help you on your way along the road to find your dreams.

Chorus
