Bright Young Thing - Hue & Cry

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
