Lyrics
[Verse 1]
(Hold tight) Now we're on our own
(Cue light) Now it's ready to roll
(Tonight) How I've waited for, aggravated for years
(It's fun) Oh, I just can't wait
(Hold on) Do I look up to date?
(You're on) I'll do anything, if that's the right thing to see
[Verse 2]
Does it matter, what is shown?
Just as long as everyone knows
What you're selling, what to buy
The stock market for your hifi
[Verse 3]
Take the money
Leave the box
Everybody's on top of the pops
[Verse 4]
(There's one) Born everyday
(Sing a song) Then they fade away
(Ding dong) What's your future in the pop music industry?
(Alright) So you make the grade
(Hold tight) To the buck you've made
(Just wait) You've been rated for constipated peak viewing time
[Verse 5]
Does it matter, what is shown?
Just as long as everyone knows
What's in fashion, what is seen
On the front of a television screen
[Verse 6]
Take the money
Leave the box
Everybody's on top of the pops
[Verse 7]
(Hold tight) Now we're on our own
(Cue light) Now it's ready to roll
(Tonight) How I've waited for, aggravated for years
(It's fun) Oh, I just can't wait
(Hold on) Do I look up to date?
(You're on) I'll do anything, if that's the right thing to see
[Verse 8]
Does it matter, what is shown?
Just as long as everyone knows
What you're selling, what to buy
The stock market for your hifi
[Verse 9]
Take the money
Leave the box
Everybody's on top of the pops
Pay the money
Watch the box
Everybody's on top of the pops
Everybody's on top of the pops, hey
