You gotta catch a wave and you're sittin' on top of the world
Not just a fad 'cause it's been going on so long
(All the surfers going strong)
They said it wouldn't last too long
They'll eat their words with a fork and spoon
And watch 'em they'll hit the road and all be surfin' soon
And when they catch a wave they'll be sittin' on top of the world

Catch a wave and you're sittin' on top of the world
So take a lesson from a top-notch surfer boy
(Get yourself a big board)
But don't you treat it like a toy
Just get away from the shady turf
And baby go catch some rays on the sunny surf
And when you catch a wave you'll be sittin' on top of the world
(Way up high, up on top of the world)
Catch a wave, you'll be sittin' on top of the world
