The Elevator

1st floor decide what you`ll be one day

With a head full of comment and nothing to say

2nd floor mixed up it happens that way

Soon you realize that listening don`t pay

3rd floor in limbo, no easy moves

Up or down it`s time to choose



(Chorus)

The elevators going up

Quick the door`s about to shut

Too late we`re full just hang around

It won`t be long - it won`t be long before it`s down



4th floor the job hunt and all that you ask

Is an honest day`s pay for an honest day`s graft

5th floor you may make a little more money

Now it`s apparent downstairs ain`t so fuuny

6th floor a mortgage, a collar and tie

2 weeks vacation in june or july



(Chorus)

The elevators going up

Quick the door`s about to shut ....



7th floor expenses and private schools

Pushing a pen you`re not turning the tools

8th floor position, respect and acclaim

Move up the 9th for fortune or fame

10th floor for investment and real estate

Recouping the redies before it`s tool late

11th floor the penthouse the final cut

With a head full of comment and a mouth that stays shut



(Chorus)

The elevators going up

Quick the door`s about to shut ....
