Out of the corner Of my tired eyes, Im not surprised
That its now a quarter past too late,
Nothing new, its no case out of the ordinary
Im so very wrapped around your finger this time
Oh, wont you give me awhile to unwind?
Coro
Youre on top of the world
And Im just waiting, making up your excuse
You say that loves tough, are you sure?
Aint it just a piece of cake to make me look like a fool?
I look like a fool
Youre like a splinter Just killing me slowly from inside
The piercing winter is so much
More inviting than the stare in your eyes
One heavy cinderblock, like a rock
Youre just staying, weighing, breaking me down
Im crying out, you dont hear a sound
Coro
Youre on top of the world
And Im just waiting, making up your excuse
You say that loves tough, are you sure?
Aint it just a piece of cake to make me look like a fool?
I look like a fool
Hope Ive lost enough to win you back your prize
To put you up sky high, get your pride back to its familiar place
And I hope its cost enough of my dear, precious time
To lift your spirits, spark your smile
Youre on top of the world
And Im just waiting, making up your excuse
You say that loves tough, are you sure?
Aint it just a piece of cake to make me look like a fool?
I look like a fool
You break me, make me look like a fool
I am not your fool, no, no
You may be on top of the world, but Im done playing by your rules
Youre on top of the world
