Golden Boy — Natalie Merchant

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 And 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, 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, golden boy, golden boy
