You're The Top | Glee [HD FULL STUDIO] - Video
PUBLISHED:  Sep 22, 2013
DESCRIPTION:
You're the Top from Anything Goes is featured in Heart, the thirteenth episode of Season Three. It is sung by Hiram, LeRoy, and Rachel in the episode version.

They sing it at a dinner party to celebrate Finn and Rachel's engagement. During the song, Finn and Carole seem to enjoy the performance, and Burt seems to look surprised. Finn, in particular, asks why Carole, Burt, and himself never did this before dinner, a question which Burt quickly dismisses. Burt looks like he's been put in an awkward position during the performance.

In the episode version, Rachel is also singing the song, although the performance is very much different than the proper studio version.

LYRICS:

Leroy:
At words poetic, I'm so pathetic
That I always have found it best,
Instead of getting 'em off my chest,
To let 'em rest unexpressed,
I hate parading my serenading
As I'll probably miss a bar,
But if this ditty is not so pretty,

Leroy and Hiram:
At least it'll tell you how great you are.

Hiram:
You're the top! Leroy,
You're the Coliseum.

On the great Durante.

I'm just in the way,
As the French would say,

"de trop"!
But if, baby, I'm the bottom,
But if, baby, I'm the bottom,
But if, baby, I'm the bottom,
You're the top!

But if, baby, I'm the bottom,
But if, baby, I'm the bottom,
But if, baby, I'm the bottom,
You're the top!
