From The Top To The Bottom Lyrics

From The Top To The Bottom lyrics

(Callaghan/Stapleton)



Two's company, Three's a crowd

Any more and it's getting out of hand

There must be order we must be organised

Systems of supply and demand

We need a structure to carry on

What we need is a system of control

Trouble was the trouble is

There's lots in agreement but few in the know



Red lobby, blue lobby, red lobby, blue lobby

Swings to the left, swings to the right

Till there's a balance, a balance of might, 'cos it

It filters down from the top to the bottom

You mightn't like it but you can't seem to stop 'em

It filters down from the top to the bottom

You mightn't like it but you can't seem to stop 'em



Don't plan ahead don't look behind

Just survive hour by hour

Don't think, you don't have to plan

Pay homage to the central power

Once in a while we get a change

Start again, try something new

Trouble was the trouble is

All the many get told by the few



Economy, military, religion to they

Swing to the left, swing to the right

To the rhythm, the rhythm of might, 'cos it

It filters down from the top to the bottom

You mightn't like it but you can't seem to stop 'em

It filters down from the top to the bottom

You mightn't like it but you can't seem to stop 'em



Stop 'em!



Economy, military, religion to, they

Swing to the left, swing to the right

To the rhythm, the rhythm of might, 'cos it

It filters down from the top to the bottom

You mightn't like it but you can't seem to stop 'em

It filters down from the top to the bottom

You mightn't like it but you can't seem to stop 'em

It filters down from the top to the bottom
