Intro



[Eddie Cochran]



Three Steps To Heaven Three Steps... X2



Verse 1



(Step 1...)



I'm Getting Old Now I'm Leaving My School Now



And I Just Don't Know How I'm In This Dole Queue



And Even With My I.Q. There's No Room For Me



Except In A Factory A Building Site Ain't Me



I Wanna Use My Brain See And Work Creatively



I Wanna Be A Rock Star I Know I'm Gonna Go Far



Inside I'm Always Screaming, Unless You See My Dreaming



Up There I'm In My Top Gear, It'll Be For Real Next Year...



Chorus



[Eddie Cochran]



Now There...are Three...steps To Heaven... X2



Verse 2



(Step 2...)



She's Only Pregnant, I'm Stuck In This Flat And



There's No-one To Recognise Or Even To Realise



My Full True Potential, I'm Someone Very Special



Tell Me Why Are They Living When They Look So Pointless?



I'm Really So Important, They're All Just Meaningless



Why Don't They Look At Me And Hear What I Am Saying?



I'm Gonna Be Famous, Maybe Not Today But



Certainly The Next Year, I Won't Be Living Round Here...



Repeat Chorus



Verse 3



(Step 3...)



...is In The Bedroom Staring At The Sideboard



The Kids Are Goin' Overboard And She's In A Bad Mood



Sitting In The Frontroom Knitting Up A Cardigan



I'm Just In My Own World, I Wish I Could Start Again



Won't Anybody Help Me? Cos Time Is Moving Quickly



The Bills They Get More Frequent, They're Fuelling Up The Arguments



It's All Becoming So Clear, There Won't Be No Next Year



That's The Way The Story Goes



Well, Time For An Overdose...



Repeat Chorus



Outro
