Aimee Mann › Put Me On Top

Put Me On Top Lyric by Aimee Mann

I should be knocking on the door of the pearly gates
Why keep a poor man alive in a job he hates
Ive heard that good things will come to he who waits
I should be riding on a float in the hit parade
Instead of sitting on the curb behind the barricade
Another verse in the doormat serenade

Wont you put me on top
Wont you put me on top, or change the odds
Wont you put me on top
Or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box

Oh, at least put some hope in the box for me
cause its only black and white and not a lot of each
Theres a remote on the shelf, but its out of reach

Wont you put me on top
Wont you put me on top, or change the odds
Wont you put me on top
Or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box

Put some hope in the bottom of the box
I need it
