I'm at the stage   Where everything I thought meant something   Seems so unappealing   I'm ready for the real thing   But nobody's selling   Except you and yours   Saying open up your eyes and ears   And let me in      You must be out of your brilliant mind      You're at the stage   You want your empty words heard   And everybody's ready   They want to know your secret   But you are not telling   You're just gesturing saying open up your arms and hearts   And let me in      You must be out of your brilliant mind      I'm at the stage   Where I want my words heard   When no one wants to listen   Because everybody's yelling   About you and yours   And how I'd have the answer if I'd only open up, up, up   And let you in      They must be out of their brilliant minds      I said shame   Shame on you   Shame   Shame on you   Shame   Shame on you      You must be out of your brilliant mind   And they must be out of their brilliant minds   Everyone out of their brilliant minds   I must be out of my brilliant mind   My brilliant mind
