The Smithereens - Top of the Pops lyrics

rate me

Big plans, big time, everything

Downtown pawn shop

Bought us a ring

Heading for the top-

Top of the pops

Top, top, top of the pops-

Hey! Hey!

Two time, two-ton hangover king

The bride wore black

We were ready to swing

Too far gone to stop-top of the pops

You told me baby you had time to kill

But then you tossed me out like an overdue bill

You left in a hurry with a guy from the band

On a one way ride to the promised land

Top of the pops

You told me baby you were gone for good

But here you are

Right back in the old

Neighborhood

You stood in a lobby with a ticket in hand

For a one-way ride to the promised land

Top of the pops

Second-hand wedding band, throw it away

Big plans, big time, got in the way

Now we're on the top

Top of the pops
