Toto

[Verse 1: Tony Spinner and Greg Phillinganes]
They keep looking through the window
A cathode glaze across their eyes
Now that I've been betrayed
I must be well behaved
I'll drink corruption with their lies

[Verse 2: Tony Spinner and Greg Phillinganes]
Why was I hiding out?
What am I running from?
Why are they waiting?
Have I always been the choosen one?

[Chorus: Tony Spinner, Greg Phillinganes, Steve Lukather and Bobby Kimball]
Drag him to the roof
Just push me over
I've got no better place to be
Drag him to the roof
Let's get it over
It's a perfect day to punish me

[Verse 3: Tony Spinner and Greg Phillinganes]
I wish that lady would defend me
I can't abide by all the laws
I'll buy thе magistrate
Can't be a second latе
I anxiously await his call

[Verse 4: Tony Spinner and Greg Phillinganes]
Who made this jigsaw puzzle?
Who'll put the pieces back?
Who'll come and get me
When I have fallen through the cracks?

[Pre-Chorus: Greg Phillinganes and Tony Spinner and Steve Lukather, Bobby Kimball]
Drag him to the roof
Just push me over
I've got no better place to be
Drag him to the roof
Let's get it over
It's not a pretty thing to see

[Chorus: Greg Phillinganes and Tony Spinner and Steve Lukather, Bobby Kimball]
Drag him to the roof
Just push me over
I've got no better place to be
Drag him to the roof
Let's get it over
It's a perfect day to punish me

[Verse 5: Tony Spinner and Greg Phillinganes]
Who made this jigsaw puzzle?
Who'll put the pieces back?
Who'll come and get me
When I have fallen through the cracks?

[Pre-Chorus: Greg Phillinganes and Tony Spinner and Steve Lukather, Bobby Kimball]
Drag him to the roof
Just push me over
I've got no better place to be
Drag him to the roof
Let's get it over
It's not a pretty thing to see

[Pre-Chorus: Tony Spinner, Greg Phillinganes, Steve Lukather and Bobby Kimball]
Drag him to the roof
Just push me over
I've got no better place to be
Drag him to the roof
Let's get it over
It's not a pretty thing to see

[Post-Chorus: Greg Phillinganes and Tony Spinner and Steve Lukather, Bobby Kimball]
Drag him to the roof
Na na na na
Na na na, yeah
Drag him to the roof
Let's get it over
It's a perfect day to punish me

Toto is an American rock band formed in 1977 in Van Nuys in Los Angeles, California. The band’s current lineup consists of Joseph Williams (lead vocals), David Paich (keyboards, vocals), Steve Porcaro (keyboards), Steve Lukather (guitars, vocals), Shem von Schroeck (bass), and Shannon Forrest (drums). Toto is known for a musical style that combines elements of pop, rock, soul, funk, progressive rock, hard rock, R&B, blues, and jazz.

David Paich and Jeff Porcaro had played together as session musicians on several albums and decided to form a band. David Hungate, Steve Lukather, Steve Porcaro, and Bobby Kimball were recruited before their first album release. The band enjoyed great commercial success in the late 1970s and 1980s, beginning with the band’s eponymous debut released in 1978. With the release of the critically acclaimed and commercially successful Toto IV from 1982, Toto became one of the best-selling music groups of their era. They are best known for the Top 5 hits “Hold the Line”, “Rosanna”, and “Africa”. Several changes to the lineup have been made over the years. Hungate left in 1982 followed by Kimball in 1984 but rejoined the band in 1998 until 2008. Jeff Porcaro died in 1992 of a heart attack. Hungate rejoined Toto as a touring musician and later a band member. In 2008, Lukather announced his departure from the band, and the remaining band members later went their separate ways. In the summer of 2010, Toto reformed and went on a short European tour, with a new lineup, to benefit Mike Porcaro, who had been diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and was no longer an active member of the band.

The band has released a total of 17 albums, and have sold over 40 million albums to date. The group was honored with several Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2009.
