Lyrics

Every now and then I hear a song I used to know
Playing late at night on radio
And I remember when the schooldays finally had to end
We were neatly wrapped and sent off in a row;

To be champions of the world
We can take on anyone
Nothing's going to keep us from the door;

We're taking it to the top - oh yes indeed we are
We've come this far
We're taking it to the top - oh yes indeed we will
We've got the skill
We're taking it to the top, hitting them from the heart
Too late to stop, right from the start
Up to the top, giving it all we've got
To the top of the hill right now!

Working on the window of a boardroom in the sky
Business men in suits go flying by
They're heading for the greatest day that they have ever seen
Selling bridges to the japanese;

We are the champions of the world
We can take on anyone
Nothing's going to keep us on the floor;

We're taking it to the top - oh yes indeed we are
We've come this far
We're taking it to the top - oh yes indeed we will
We've got the skill
We're taking it to the top, hitting them from the heart
Too late to stop, right now!

Taking it to the top - oh yes indeed we are
We've come this far
We're taking it to the top - oh yes indeed we will
We've got the skill
We're taking it to the top, hitting them from the heart
Too late to stop, once we have started
To the top, giving it all we've got
To the top of the hill right now, right now!
