Fortieth Floor by Lesley Duncan Lyrics

Quote from the song “Fortieth Floor” by Lesley Duncan

I've tried to like you, but I don’t think I could
Talking to you is just like talking to wood
But I don't mind, my life is mine
And though you've got me for some time
It’s all on paper – yes, my name's on your file
"A legal document", you'd say with a smile
But that's just fine, it's only time
So I'll just sit and watch you climb

[Verse 1]

I've tried to like you, but I don’t think I could
Talking to you is just like talking to wood
But I don't mind, my life is mine
And though you've got me for some time
It’s all on paper – yes, my name's on your file
"A legal document", you'd say with a smile
But that's just fine, it's only time
So I'll just sit and watch you climb

[Chorus 1]

Yes, I'll watch you climb to the fortieth floor
Where they throw you to the lions
And then show you the door
'Cause it’s cold up there on the New York skyline
And the building’s made of tin
And you've got to watch for the enemies within
(Enemiеs within)

[Verse 2]

For me it’s easy, 'cause you don't mеan a thing
You caged the songbird, but you can't make it sing
You don’t scare me – I've learned to be
Detached from little men like you
But there are others, who just won't understand
How a man like you can hold their lives in your hand
When your time comes, just do your sums
And count the enemies you've made

[Chorus 2]

'Cause there's no room for friendship on the fortieth floor
And the ones that you crushed on your slow climb up
Will stand 'round your door
And you hardened the heart of many
A one, who would've been your friend
And the men who cannot bow, don't like to bend

[Verse 3]

Ambition's easy, but the price is too high
The power that you seek, will turn out a lie
So take your time, make up your mind
I hope you make it right and fine

[Chorus 2]

'Cause there's no room for friendship on the fortieth floor
And the ones you crushed on your slow climb up
Will show you the door
And you hardened the heart of many
A one, who would've been your friend
And the men who cannot bow, don't like to bend

[Outro]

Do-do, do-do, do-do-do, do, do-do-do
Do-do, do-do, do-do-do, do, do-do-do
Do-do, do-do, do-do-do, do, do-do-do
Do-do, do-do, do-do-do, do, do-do-do
Do-do, do-do, do-do-do, do, do-do-do...
