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...
