Oh gorgeous thing,
when you gonna get up there and sing?
when you gonna get up there and take your place on stage?
'cause a talent, is a terrible thing to waste
it goes faster than you think
even for such a gorgeous thing
there's no excuse in tender age
get your face on a glossy page
'cause one like yours would be a shame to waste
oh gorgeous thing,
when you gonna get up there and play?
i heard you strumming yesterday
so watch this space
'cause hands like yours, would be a shame to waste
oh gorgeous thing,
fame is the new royalty
your blood the richest blue i've seen
well at least,
it's between you and steve mcqueen
mmmyeah
at least, it's between you and steve mcqueen
when you gonna get up there and sing?
when you gonna get up there and take your place on stage?
'cause a talent, is a terrible thing to waste
it goes faster than you think
even for such a gorgeous thing
there's no excuse in tender age
get your face on a glossy page
'cause one like yours would be a shame to waste
oh gorgeous thing,
when you gonna get up there and play?
i heard you strumming yesterday
so watch this space
'cause hands like yours, would be a shame to waste
oh gorgeous thing,
fame is the new royalty
your blood the richest blue i've seen
well at least,
it's between you and steve mcqueen
mmmyeah
at least, it's between you and steve mcqueen
