Top of the World (feat. Hanson)
You can walk a mile in no shoes
Before you realized you were dreaming
And when you finally come to
Your nightmares warning may still be screaming
Careful what you wish for little man
It might go on and on and on and on
Because there's poison in the rat race
And your tasters won't protect you from your royal table
When karma finally puts you in your place
On top of the world
You meet strange people
People choose to turn their back on you
Just to cover their asses
On top of the world
Your soul sells cheaper
Then a pack of used cigarettes
Or your designer glasses
The rent is cheaper but the climb is stepper
At the top of the world
The rent is cheaper but the climb is steeper
At the top of the world
The rent is cheaper but the climb is_steeper
At the top of the world
On the top of the world
When your eyes are focused on a price
Your head turnes 'round and 'round by some paddle's panacea
To late realization will arise
A tower's view won't take you high as a single good idea
On top of the world
You meet strange people
People choose to turn their back on you
Just to cover their asses
On top of the world
Your soul sells cheaper
Then a pack of used cigarettes
On your designer glasses
The rent is cheaper but the climb is stepper
At the top of the world
The rent is cheaper but the climb is stepper
At the top of the world
The rent is cheaper but the climb is_
No rhyme or reason, no sense of up or down
Not even air up there to fill your beating heart
Icarus can see you form where he landed on the ground
Right there where everybody also starts
On the top of the world
On top of the world
Your soul sells cheaper
Then a pack of used cigarettes
And your designer glasses
The rent is cheaper but the climb is steeper...
Before you realized you were dreaming
And when you finally come to
Your nightmares warning may still be screaming
Careful what you wish for little man
It might go on and on and on and on
Because there's poison in the rat race
And your tasters won't protect you from your royal table
When karma finally puts you in your place
On top of the world
You meet strange people
People choose to turn their back on you
Just to cover their asses
On top of the world
Your soul sells cheaper
Then a pack of used cigarettes
Or your designer glasses
The rent is cheaper but the climb is stepper
At the top of the world
The rent is cheaper but the climb is steeper
At the top of the world
The rent is cheaper but the climb is_steeper
At the top of the world
On the top of the world
When your eyes are focused on a price
Your head turnes 'round and 'round by some paddle's panacea
To late realization will arise
A tower's view won't take you high as a single good idea
On top of the world
You meet strange people
People choose to turn their back on you
Just to cover their asses
On top of the world
Your soul sells cheaper
Then a pack of used cigarettes
On your designer glasses
The rent is cheaper but the climb is stepper
At the top of the world
The rent is cheaper but the climb is stepper
At the top of the world
The rent is cheaper but the climb is_
No rhyme or reason, no sense of up or down
Not even air up there to fill your beating heart
Icarus can see you form where he landed on the ground
Right there where everybody also starts
On the top of the world
On top of the world
Your soul sells cheaper
Then a pack of used cigarettes
And your designer glasses
The rent is cheaper but the climb is steeper...
