Lyrics
Top of the fold, toast of the town,
Everyone stops when you come around
They hold their breath for you
Heroes are born, idols are made
We're all fools for this factory fame
And you've got the brand new face
You've got the brand new face, golden boy
Beauty untamed, stupid and wild
Poster boy you're society's child
Cut your teeth, cut your mouth, cut it out
Meteor rise from obscurity
All it took was a killing spree
And the whole world was lying at your feet
Golden boy
I know my place,
Stick to my lines,
Stay in your shadow
Don't block your light
So you can shine divine
So you can shine divine, golden boy...
