When you reach number tenAnd think the struggle endsBut it
ain't the endIt's only a trendYou have to
unbend'Cause it's only a trendDon't lose all your
friendsDon't make heroes endWhen you reach number eight it
ain't no pearly gate'Cause it won't satiate your
growing appetiteYou can ply your trade and push your
crusadeEmancipate or indoctrinate, but theTraps are all laid for
and honest crusadeYour old values will fade as you struggle to
make the gradeAs you struggle to make the grade(As you struggle
to make the grade)(You neededn't bother)When you hit number
four you're almost through the doorBut there's a whole
lot more you just can't ignoreThe telephone's sure,
you know the scoreBut don't let this uproar dissipate your
encoreIt's written in the news how you paid your duesBut
you've no excuse for the people you abuseWhen you reach
number one you can beat your drumYou can sack your roadies in
BirminghamWhen your record is platinum, you can stick it to the
bath,To the wall like you've always plannedIt's
written in the news how you paid your duesBut you've no
excuse for the people you abuse
