Ub40 - The Elevator Lyrics
1st floor decide what you`ll be one dayWith a head full of comment and nothing to say2nd floor mixed up it happens that waySoon you realize that listening don`t pay3rd floor in limbo, no easy movesUp or down it`s time to choose(chorus)The elevators going upQuick the door`s about to shutToo late we`re full just hang aroundIt won`t be long - it won`t be long before it`s down4th floor the job hunt and all that you askIs an honest day`s pay for an honest day`s graft5th floor you may make a little more moneyNow it`s apparent downstairs ain`t so fuuny6th floor a mortgage, a collar and tie2 weeks vacation in june or july(chorus)The elevators going upQuick the door`s about to shut ....7th floor expenses and private schoolsPushing a pen you`re not turning the tools8th floor position, respect and acclaimMove up the 9th for fortune or fame10th floor for investment and real estateRecouping the redies before it`s tool late11th floor the penthouse the final cutWith a head full of comment and a mouth that stays shut(chorus)The elevators going upQuick the door`s about to shut ....
