The Style Council – Shout To The Top! – 1984

    Paroles

    I was half in mind, I was half in need
    And as the rain came down
    I dropped to my knees and I prayed
    I said, « Oh heavenly thing, please cleanse my soul
    I’ve seen all on offer and I’m not impressed at all »

    I was halfway home, I was half insane
    And every shop window I looked in just looked the same
    I said, « Now send me a sign to save my life
    ‘Cause at this moment in time there is nothing certain in
    These days of mine »

    Y’see it’s a frightening thing when it dawns upon you
    That I know as much as the day I was born
    And though I wasn’t asked, I might as well stay
    And promise myself each and every day

    That when you’re knocked on your back and your life’s a flop
    And when you’re down on the bottom there’s nothing else
    But to shout to the top, well we’re gonna shout to the top
    We’re gonna shout to the top, we’re gonna shout to the top
    Hey, we’re gonna shout to the top

    Y’see it’s a frightening thing when it dawns upon you
    That I know as much as the day I was born
    And though I wasn’t asked, I might as well stay
    And promise myself each and every day

    We’re gonna shout to the top, shout
    We’re gonna shout to the top, shout
    We’re gonna shout to the top, shout

    We’re gonna shout to the top, shout
    We’re gonna shout to the top, shout
    We’re gonna shout to the top, shout

    So when you’re knocked on your back and your life’s a flop
    And when you’re down on the bottom there’s nothing else
    But to shout to the top, well, we’re gonna shout to the top
    We’re gonna shout to the top, we’re gonna shout to the top

    And when you’re knocked on your back and your life’s a flop
    And when you’re down on the bottom there’s nothing else
    But to shout to the top, we’re gonna shout to the top
    We’re gonna shout to the top, we’re gonna shout to the top
    Hey, yeah, shout to the top
