Alimee Mann - Put me on top

I should be knocking on the door of the pearly gateswhy keep a poor man alive in a job he hates I've heard that good things will come to he who waits I should be riding on a float in the hit paradeinstead of sitting on the curb behind the barricadeanother verse in the doormat serenade Won't you put me on topwon't you put me on top, or change the oddswon't you put me on topor at least put some hope in the bottom of the box Oh, at least put some hope in the box for me'cause it's only black and white and not a lot of eachthere's a remote on the shelf, but it's out of reach Won't you put me on topwon't you put me on top, or change the oddswon't you put me on topor at least put some hope in the bottom of the box Put some hope in the bottom of the box I need it
