You're The Top

Lyrics

At words poetic, I'm so pathetic
 That I always have found it best
 Instead of getting 'em off my chest
 To let 'em rest unexpressed
 I hate parading my serenading
 As I'll probably miss a bar
 But if this ditty is not so pretty
 At least it'll tell you how great you are
 ♪
 You're the top, you're the Colosseum
 You're the top, you're the Louvre Museum
 You're a melody from a symphony by Strauss
 You're a Bendel bonnet, s Shakespeare sonnet
 You're Mickey Mouse
 You're the Nile
 You're the Tower of Pisa
 You're the smile on the Mona Lisa
 I'm a worthless check, a total wreck, a flop
 But if, baby, I'm the bottom, you're the top
 Tell me more!
 You're the top, Sam, you're Mahatma Gandhi
 You're the top, you're Napoleon Brandy
 You're the purple light of a summer night in Spain
 You're the National Gallery, you're Presley's salary
 You're cellophane
 You're sublime, you're like a turkey dinner
 You're the time of the Derby winner
 I'm a toy balloon that's fated soon to pop
 But if, baby, I'm the bottom, you're the top, shh
 But if, baby, I'm the bottom, you're the top
 But if, baby, I'm the bottom, you're the top
