Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
The portrait immortal, like a spoilt Andy Warhol
The world is not eternal
The Devil in the detail
ย
Trapped in the idea of this fucked panacea
You believe in wonder, but strive for mediocre
ย
Too smart, too fly, too sharp, too bright
Too smart, too fly, too sharp, too bright
ย
The keys to the kingdom, your own personal place
While things're collapsing, you sit back and laughing
No one is ever safe, the Emperor sit in state
No one is ever safe (for, for)
ย
Too smart, too fly, too sharp, too bright
Too wise, too wise, too wise, too wise (for) too wise
ย
Too smart, too fly, too sharp, too bright
Too smart, too fly, too sharp, too bright
Too smart, too fly, too sharp, too bright
Too wise, too wise, too wise
Hope springs eternal, the flags unfolding
The keys to the kingdom
Your own personal plaything
Part of a grand design
These walls now trapped inside
Maybe we can figure that
There's no last laugh
Too smart, too fly, too sharp, too bright
Too smart, too fly, too sharp, too bright
Too smart, too fly, too sharp, too bright
Too wise (for) too wise (for) too wise (for) too wise (for)
Too wise (for) wise, too wise, too wise, too wise
Too wise, too wise, too wise, too wise, too wise for
