Hard At The Top

I finally found the face, the frown
The fun of fame, I'm wearing a crown
I saw myself in the State of Maine
My name in lights but it's not the same.

Well, we rode through the land in our slick green van
Waiting for that man to give us a hand
The cabbies don't know where we're coming from
If something goes wrong, I don't care, we're so strong.

'Cause it's hard at the top but it's harder at the bottom
And it's nobody's fault if you're scared of shouting (doo doo doo doo …)

I was scared and scarred, bare and barred
'Cause life at the top well it ain't so hard
In a hotel room I face the gloom
But the bad old days didn't go too soon.

Now it's jet lag, red flag here and there
But the hand that he lends, well, it ain't so fair
Now we're over the rain in our slick green plane
With our name in lights and it's still the same.

Hard at the top but it's harder at the bottom
And it's nobody's fault if you're scared of shouting
(Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo).

Hard at the top, hard at the top
Hard at the top, hard at the top
Hard at the top, hard at the top
