Madness - Going To The Top lyrics

When you're going to the top and you have no time to stop

Then you have to travel light and you'd better go by night

Cause its not a pretty sight when you're going to the top

And you're never going to stop and you won't let nobody block

Your way to the top

And though bodies they may fall old friends up against the wall

Can't let feelings in the way as if you had some anyway

Some will have to move aside true intent you'll always hide

Wagging tongues may call you snide you may not know who's on your side

When you're going to the top

But you could let it go tonight

Watch it all fade out of sight

There's still some time to mend your ways

Don't you know its love that pays

Still you've heard it all before and I don't want to be a bore

So I'll just be on my way maybe we will meet one day

Probably won't have much to say if I see you passing by

Cause you're going much to high and you may well never stop

Cause you're going to the top

Maybe we will meet one day

Probably won't have much to say

So I'll just say toodle ooh and the best of luck to you

When I see you passing by when you're going much too high

When you're going to the top

When you're going to the toooooooop

When you're going to the toooooooop

But you could take my hand tonight

We'd let it all fade out of sight

There's still some time to mend your ways

Don't you know its love that pays
