Top of the Stairs Lyrics

One woman's floor is another man's ceiling
I can hear her up above
Playing Henry Mancini
I hear the laughing and the party's go nightly
Who can this woman be?
This modern hottie go lightly
She's at the top of the stairs
When I knock there's nobody there
Who cares?

She's at the top of the stairs
With her I'm getting nowhere
It's not fair!

I've seen a steady stream of gentlemen callers
Walking in tall then coming out smaller
She leads a busy life trying to fill deadlines
I lead a quiet life from morning 'til bedtime
She's at the top of the stairs
When I knock there's nobody there
So who cares?

She's at the top of the stairs
With her I'm getting nowhere
It's not fair!

I've seen it go from bad to worse
Doesn't she know I lived here first?
There must be something we can do

Perhaps if we met face-to-face
And I could come up to her place
She'd see I'm worth inviting too
Ba-ba-ba-ba

She's at the top of the stairs
When I knock there's nobody there
But who cares?

Yeah, she's at the top of the stairs
And with her I'm getting nowhere
It's not fair!

Top of the stairs (x3)

Ba-ba-ba-ba(x7)
