Lyrics:
Maybe, I’ll be the next big thing
If I ignore all the thoughts that I usually let in, hey
Hello, I am the next big thing
I walk and then I talk and then I talk and then I sing yeah
Could I, I be your next big thing?
I’m pulling myself up,
Like a puppet on a string, Oh
Maybe, you are the next big thing
Because you squeeze all the good out of everything

[Chorus]

Had enough, Had enough,
I’ve run out of empathy
Had enough, Had enough,
It’s over and done
A new me, a new you,
We’re singing a different tune
A new me, a new you, but what’s the use?

(Next big thing x4)

I’ll try and be the next big thing
If I keep my fingers crossed
On a prayer and on a wing now
Oh yeah, I know you feel nothing
‘Cos everything I did was just not convincing, no
Desperate, and on a hope I cling
That I won’t be alone, that my telephone will ring
I guess I’ll never be the next big thing
‘Cos I expect that the worst thing is happening

[Chorus]
Maybe, I’ll be the next big thing
If I ignore all the thoughts that I usually let in
Maybe, I’ll be the next big thing
If I ignore all the thoughts that I usually let in
You will never be the next big thing
You were never good enough,
Who do you think you’re kidding?
You will never be the next big thing
If you hide from life

[Chorus]
