Treetops by Michael Day Music Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We build towers out of Duplo, castles in the sand
Build cubbies in the bush, hoping to be found
They say 'haha, look at you, how great you will be'
Or in their shadows you heard that speech
[Chorus]
We’re jumping through the treetops, yellin’ on the roof
'Top of the world, look at me'
We build cities we get lost in, towers to the sky
Stand upon the rooftops thinkin' 'how great am I?'
'Or how great am I?'
[Verse 2]
And all through high school, I put my head down
Or I dropped out and fooled around
Or I got into uni and got my degree
But 'regret to inform you' is all I receive
[Chorus]
We’re jumping through the treetops, yellin’ on the roof
'Top of thе world, look at me'
We build cities wе get lost in, towers to the sky
Stand upon the rooftops thinkin' 'how great am I?'
'Or how great am I?'
[Verse 3]
Talk yourself up, don’t put yourself down
Word it like this, and you’ll be found
Mascara on your eyes and blush on your face
Hold it in, don’t show the pain
[Chorus]
We’re jumping through the treetops, yellin’ on the roof
'Top of the world, look at me'
We build cities we get lost in, towers to the sky
Stand upon the rooftops thinkin' 'how great am I?'
'Or how great am I?'
[Verse 4]
So put your makeup on with joy and glee
Looking back was it worth the fee?
What did you give up? What did you hold in?
What did you kill, or kill within?
[Chorus]
We’re jumping through the treetops, yellin’ on the roof
'Top of the world, look at me'
We build cities we get lost in, towers to the sky
Stand upon the rooftops thinkin' 'how great am I?'
'Or how great am I?'
[Instrumental Break]
[Humming and vocalisations]
We build towers out of Duplo, castles in the sand
Build cubbies in the bush, hoping to be found
They say 'haha, look at you, how great you will be'
Or in their shadows you heard that speech
[Chorus]
We’re jumping through the treetops, yellin’ on the roof
'Top of the world, look at me'
We build cities we get lost in, towers to the sky
Stand upon the rooftops thinkin' 'how great am I?'
'Or how great am I?'
[Verse 2]
And all through high school, I put my head down
Or I dropped out and fooled around
Or I got into uni and got my degree
But 'regret to inform you' is all I receive
[Chorus]
We’re jumping through the treetops, yellin’ on the roof
'Top of thе world, look at me'
We build cities wе get lost in, towers to the sky
Stand upon the rooftops thinkin' 'how great am I?'
'Or how great am I?'
[Verse 3]
Talk yourself up, don’t put yourself down
Word it like this, and you’ll be found
Mascara on your eyes and blush on your face
Hold it in, don’t show the pain
[Chorus]
We’re jumping through the treetops, yellin’ on the roof
'Top of the world, look at me'
We build cities we get lost in, towers to the sky
Stand upon the rooftops thinkin' 'how great am I?'
'Or how great am I?'
[Verse 4]
So put your makeup on with joy and glee
Looking back was it worth the fee?
What did you give up? What did you hold in?
What did you kill, or kill within?
[Chorus]
We’re jumping through the treetops, yellin’ on the roof
'Top of the world, look at me'
We build cities we get lost in, towers to the sky
Stand upon the rooftops thinkin' 'how great am I?'
'Or how great am I?'
