You Summers in your bedroom Made yourself a kingdom Imagining how you'd rule And everyone you knew Said she must be a genius Look at how the brush it moves Keep listening, keep watching Keep working, not stopping Little genius, little star You're everything They say you are Is it lovely in the dark Or do you dim as you go on You Autumns by the schoolyard Alpha of the Exxon The girls all wanna be like you In everything you do She must be a leader Look at how the crowd it moves Keep listening, keep watching Keep working, not stopping Little genius, little star You're everything They say you are Is it lovely in the dark Or do you dim as you go on The days they go Go on, go on The critics show Go on, go on The crowd they know Go on, go on That no one waits for so so Little genius, little star You're everything They say you are Is it lovely in the dark Or do you dim as you go on You Winters in a basement Trying not to face it Wonder where your kingdom went And when they look at you Come on little genius Do it like you used to do Keep working, keep watching They'll listen, no stopping
