You're on top of the world On top of the world and you can't Get any higher-You're on top of the world You're on top of the world tonight It wasn't easy- it was hard as hell You didn't get luck in a wishin' well Never worked so hard- had so much pain Wouldn't change for anything Learned love from a movie screen He was tough, she was wild at fifteen Quit school and had no dreams Wasn't going very far Then he got religion and she got a god It's on her back and it's in his job And it costs lots of money, honey- oh, no Breakdown nearly every day Shoulda known- couldn't get away Got lucky with the girl next door She was lonely and didn't care She was young, she was dark, she was fair Wrapped herself around you with her stare You'd explode if she would touch you there Touch you there- touch you there Tonight, tonight-tonight-tonight You're on top of the world On top of the world and you can't Get any higher You're on top of the world You're on top of the world tonight (Can you hear me, can you see me) You're on top of the world tonight (Can you hear me, can you see me) You're on top of the world tonight (Can you hear me, can you see me) You're on top of the world tonight (Can you hear me, can you see me) You're on top of the world tonight
Goin′ to a party, meet me on after school. Well we′re goin to a place where the jive is really cool.
And if the band stops a playin′ There′s a jukebox down the hall. And with your blue dress on, your folks all gone. You′re sure to give the guys a ball.
CHORUS:
Get that real guitar boy shakin′, I′m a California man, Dance right on till the floors are breakin′ I′m a California man.
Well I rocked my mamma so bad This a woman′s she’s a making me mad. Well I don′t care if her legs start aching, I′m a California man.
(from 2nd chorus on repeat last line 2x) I′m a California man.
Oh my legs start to shiver When I hear you call my name. Well, my knees keep a knockin, And my bow tie′s bustin′ out
When my feet start to fly, An′ my jeans slung way down low. You know I’m back on my heels and it′s making me feel Like the king of rock n′ roll
Jump in my love car Don′t have to go very far Just far enough to show you a thing or two
I can really swing The best of everything And I want to have a thing with you
High roller What I buy is mine And I always get the things that I choose My, my, my, such a high roller I know he′s gone away and left you I′ll take real good care of you
I′m in the mood for love You′re all I′m thinking of I′ll make you feel alright when we′re alone
I can really swing The best of everything And I want to have a thing with you
High roller What I buy is mine And I always get the things that I choose My, my, my, such a high roller, is that you? I knew you′d be here tonight And I′ll make it alright I′ll take real good care of you I′ll tuck you in tonight And I′ll make it alright I know he′s gone away and left you I′ll take real good care of you
Au revoir, auf wiedersehen You won′t see another morning You won′t see another evening Good night
Buenos noches oh senor Senorita see ya later Buenos noches, bye-bye
There are many here among us Who feel that life is a joke And for you we sing this final song For you there is no hope No hope
Sayonara suicide Hari kari kamikaze You won′t see another evening Goodbye
Buenos noches oh senor Senorita see ya later Buenos noches, bye-bye
There are many here among us Who feel that life is a joke And for you we sing this final song For you there is no hope No hope
Bye-bye, so long, farewell Bye-bye, so long, sayonara Bye-bye, au revoir, auf wiedersehen Bye-bye, so long, farewell Bye-bye, so long, suicide Bye-bye, so long, hari kari, kamikaze Suicide Suicide Suicide

Mother told me, yes, she told me I′d meet girls like you. She also told me, ″Stay away, you′ll never know what you′ll catch.″ Well just the other day I heard a soldier falling off some Indonesian junk that′s going round.
Mommy′s alright, Daddy′s alright, they just seem a little weird. Surrender, surrender, but don′t give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.
Father says, ″Your mother′s right, she′s really up on things.″ ″Before we married, Mommy served in the WACS in the Philippines.″ Now, I had heard the WACS recruited old maids for the war. But mommy isn′t one of those, I′ve known her all these years.
Mommy′s alright, Daddy′s alright, they just seem a little weird. Surrender, surrender, but don′t give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.
Whatever happened to all this season′s losers of the year? Every time I got to thinking, where′d they disappear? When I woke up, Mom and Dad were rolling on the couch. Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my Kiss records out.
