So what's the price of fortune and fame
Friendships going down the drain
What becomes of those you meet
Stepping stones beneath your feet

You've got to reach the highest peak
Ambition isn't for the weak
Determined so you are inside
But who are those you push aside

People, people, people

Something just won't let you stop
Till you make it to the top
Once you're there, you'll soon forget
All the kindness you once met

So don't forget as you grow older
Keep on looking over your shoulder
Bitterness is all you'll find
So don't tread on those you leave behind
