Brilliant People Lyrics by John Kastner

Have You Seen Lucky?

2008

[Verse 1]
Everybody's sick, everybody dies
Everybody wonders what has happened to their lives
Everybody changes, everybody lies
Everybody's crazy except for you and I
[Chorus 1]
We're just brilliant people
Walking works of art
We're such brilliant people
I don't know where to start
We're the brilliant people
That no-one ever hears
And we're resilient peoplе
Been brilliant all these years
[Verse 2]
Evan's gеttin' married, and he's on his knees
Everybody else is plantin' family trees
Nicky got insurance, and she got a man
Everybody's workin' within their fiscal plan
[Chorus 2]
We're the brilliant people
Who fell a bit behind
We're the brilliant people
Who never felt the time
It's the brilliant people
Both brilliant and amused
Now we're the brilliant people
With nothing left to lose
[Bridge]
I can't remember, but it was so long ago
I can't remember, over-analytical
Stereo and typical
Where did everybody go?
[Verse 3]
Everybody's leavin' 'cos everybody knows
Sometimes I wonder where did everybody go?
Everybody changes, everybody lies
Everybody's happy except for you and I
[Chorus 3]
We're just brillant people
With nowhere left to turn
We're such brilliant people
Who never lived to learn
We're the brilliant people
Who's walking works of art
Perhaps it's brilliant people
Who really ain't so smart
