Golden Boy Lyrics - 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 

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
