Lyrics:
Hey, it's true, no stoppin' now
You're facin' a big test
So much to do, so much to learn
So bring it, be your best

Feeling doubts, forgetting facts
Won't get you to the top
If you're gonna make it
You got to pull out all the stops

You've got to rise up to the top of the class
Go straight to the top of the class*
Rise up to the top of the class
Go straight to the top of the class

The hard part is getting goin'
To get your mind on track
Put aside all those distractions
'Cause there's no turnin' back

But you know it just gets better
When you see the end in sight
Take it on, start going strong
You can get it right!

You can get it right!

You've got to rise up (up!) to the top of the class
Go straight to the top of the class*
Rise up (up!) to the top of the class
Go straight to the top of the class

You've got to rise up (up!) to the top of the class
Go straight to the top of the class*
Rise up (up!) to the top of the class
Go straight to the top of the class

Flash by flash, card by card
Rememberin' all that you know
Put yourself through all the paces
Take a seat, it's time to show

Step by step, start it small
Look how much you can grow
Now you're lookin' at all aces
Take a seat, it's time to show

You've got to rise up (up!) to the top of the class
Go straight to the top of the class (#)
Rise up (up!) to the top of the class
Go straight to the top of the class (#)

Rise up (up!) to the top of the class
Go straight to the top of the class
And you know you can make it
You know what you've got

You've got to rise up!
