In a skyscraper - in a skyscraper's where I want to live: with no elevator, at the top of the stairs where nobody else is.
I don't want any trouble in my little bubble...

Up above the clouds, looking at the crowds down on the ground. Watching from the steeple, all the little people running round.

Lock the door behind us, no-one's gonna find us to bring us down. Oh-oh-oh-oh, in a skyscraper, in a skyscraper. In a skyscraper, in a skyscraper...
