Sittin’ Alone (at the top of the world)

Sittin’ alone at the top of the world
tryin’ to write my book by the pale starlight
sittin’ alone in an icicle maze
waitin’ on you to do what’s right...

Faithful as a dog with nose to door
hateful as a junkie who scores once more
desperate as a life of broken dreams
a crazy court jester in love with the queen.

Sittin’ alone at the top of the world
cool and calm ‘midst the space debris
sittin’ shinin’ my Polaris glow
hopin’ to help you find your way home...

Lonely is the head that wears the crown
it’s a big funny hat makes you feel like a clown
empty is the voice that gives command
to friendly servants with outstretched hands.

Sittin’ alone at the top of the world
headphones tuned to the satellites’ roar
sittin’ watchin’ the sun come ‘round
Orion flies west and a new day dawns...

Walk with a champion’s easy grace
there’s no shame in a tear-stained face
fold your tents, admit defeat
take your joy in a quiet retreat.

Sittin’ alone at the top of the world
Sittin’ alone at the top of the world
Sittin’ alone at the top of the world....
