You're a bright young thing and you care too much You're a bright young thing and you know such-and-such But they would drag and bore you, even though they adore you You're a bright young thing and you've got big plans You're a bright young thing, you know where you stand Top of the heap today and every other day Up there on that pedestal, looking down on us Do you know how empty and cold is arrogance? And your time will come, when you're number one In the blinding sun all alone, bright young thing You're a bright young thing and you've got big plans You're a bright young thing and you know where you stand Top of the heap today and every other day Up there on that pedestal, looking down on us Do you know how empty and cold is arrogance? And your time will come when you're number one In the blinding sun you're all alone, bright young thing Hey, up there on that pedestal, looking down on us Do you know how empty and cold is arrogance? And your time will come when you're number one In the blinding sun all alone, bright young thing And your time will come, when you're number one All alone, bright young thing And your time will come when you're number one Run along now, my young bright thing There can be no one, that can have some fun All alone, bright young thing You say that you don't care, if we melt into air All alone, bright young thing You don't need it now, you don't want it now You don't have it now All alone, bright young thing, young thing Thank you suspect stuff, don't think you have enough Run along, bright young thing And your time will come when you're number one
