To The Top

Okay boys now here’s the plan

I know a man who knows a man

You can go out and get some demos made

Just make sure that it’s the best you’ve played

I have found an agent for you all to meet

And I’ve begun to do the rounds down at Denmark Street

Now the promoter and a publisher have signed you up

A record deal is round the corner with a bit of luck

We’re gonna get to the top

And nothing’s gonna make us stop

We will go on to be number one

Rulers of the world of pop

Meanwhile get out on the road in a van

Countrywide performances to pick up fans

Now the clubs and dancehalls have all been well toured

And the deal is done, we’re gonna make a record

We’re on our way to the top

And nothing’s gonna make us stop

We will go on to be number one

Rulers of the world of pop

Your records gone into the charts at twenty-three

And tonight you’re gonna be appearing on TV

You’re getting chased around by girls that scream

It’s just like you’re living out a crazy dream

Now your single’s broken into the top ten

Life is never gonna be the same again

You’re grabbing all the headlines as the best new band

Bewildermania is sweeping the land

We’re getting close to the top

And nothing’s gonna make us stop

We will go on to be number one

Rulers of the world of pop

Now I’ve come to pick you up by limousine

And all down to this telegram that I’ve just seen

It’s official boys, you are second to none

Your record has just made it to number one

We’ve made it to the top

We’re never gonna let it stop

Our star has shone, we’re number one

Rulers of the world of pop
