Top of the World - Blues Traveler, Hanson

You can walk a mile in no shoes

Before you realized you were dreaming

And when you finally come to

Your nightmare’s 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

Than a pack of used cigarettes

Or your designer glasses

Oh, 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

The rent is cheaper but the climb is steeper

At the top of the world

Yeah, on the top of the world

When your eyes are focused on a price

Your head turned 'round and 'round by some paddle’s panacea

Too 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

Than a pack of used cigarettes

Or your designer glasses

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

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 from 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

Than a pack of used cigarettes

And your designer glasses, yeah

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

Oh, 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

Oh, the rent is cheaper but the climb is steeper

At the top of the world

At the top of the world
