It was in the morning
One early spring
The school year was ending
Now here’s the thing

We’re sitting on top
On Top
On Top of the world

Spring wind is breezin’
Wintertime is done
Summer is comin’
Let’s have some fun

We’re sitting on top
On Top
On Top of the world

It was a struggle
A big big climb
We stuck it out
And took our time

Chorus

There is a sign
In Hollywood
Way way below
Couldn’t see it if I could

Chorus

If you be you
I will be me
We both will be
Unique you see

Chorus

Buh buh buh Bacon
Is always the answer
So don’t be callin’
As I’m out to dinner

Chorus

We’re sitting proud
And singing loud
When you’re way up
You can’t get down

Chorus (3times)
