The Style Council Lyrics
"Shout To The Top!"

I was half in mind
I was half in need
And as the rain came down
I dropped to my knees and prayed
I said oh Heavenly thing
please cleanse my soul
I've seen it all on offer and I'm not impressed at all
I was halfway home
I was half insane
And every shop window I looked in just looked the same
I said send me a sign to save my life
Cause at this moment in time there is nothing certain in
these days of mine

Y'see it's a frightening thing when it dawns upon you
That I know as much as the day I was born
And though I wasn't asked (I might as well stay)
And promise myself each and every day that

When you're knocked on your back
Adnd your life's a flop
And when you're down on the bottom there's nothing else
But to shout to the top
Oh, we're gonna shout to the top
we're gonna shout to the top
we're gonna shout to the top
Oh, we're gonna shout to the top

Y'see it's a frightening thing when it dawns upon you
That I know as much as the day I was born
And though I wasn't asked (I might as well stay)
And promise myself each and every day

Shout to the top, shout
We're gonna shout to the top, shout
We're gonna shout to the top, shout
We're gonna shout to the top, shout
We're gonna shout to the top, shout
We're gonna shout to the top, shout

When you're knocked on your back
And your life's a flop
And when you're down on the bottom there's nothing else
But to shout to the top, shout
We're gonna shout to the top, shout
We're gonna shout to the top, shout
We're gonna shout to the top, shout

When you're knocked on your back
And your life's a flop
And when you're down on the bottom there's nothing else
But to shout to the top, shout

We're gonna shout to the top, shout (repeat until end)
