Everyone tells me to know my place But that ain't the way I play So why am I daring to show my face? Well, I've got something to say Move over sun and give me some sky I've got me some wings I'm eager to try I may be unknown, but wait till I've flown You're gonna hear from me Make me some room, you people up there On top of the world, I'll meet you I swear I'm staking my claim, remember my name You're gonna hear from me Fortune smiled, on the road before me And I'm fortune's child Now listen world, you can't ignore me Toss me the moon, 'cause I gotta shine I'm climbin' a cloud and callin' it mine You'll pardon my haste, I've no time to waste That's how it's gonna be, you'll see 'Cause you're gonna hear from me I've got a song that longs to be played Raise up my flag, begin my parade My comet's on fire, I've got to go higher Watch the world over, start comin' up clover That's how it's gonna be, you'll see Yes, you're gonna hear from me, me, me
