Hero |
When the house fell asleep |
There was always a light |
And it fell from the page to the eyes |
Of an American boy |
In a storybook land |
I could dream what I read |
When it went to my head I’d see |
I wanna be a hero |
But the practical side |
Said the question was still |
When you grow up what will you be? |
I wanna be a hero |
Hero |
It’s a nice-boy notion that the real world’s gonna destroy |
You know |
It’s a Marvel comic book Saturday matinee fairytale, boy |
Growing older you’ll find |
That illusions are bought |
And the idol you thought you’d be |
Was just another zero |
I wanna be a hero |
Heroes died when the squealers bought 'em off |
Died when the dealers got 'em off |
Welcome to the «in it for the money as an idol» show |
When they ain’t as big as life |
When they ditch their second wife |
Where’s the boy to go? |
Gotta be a hero |
Hero |
It’s a nice-boy notion that the real world’s gonna destroy |
You know |
It’s a Marvel comic book Saturday matinee fairytale, boy |
When the house fell asleep |
From a book I was led |
To a light that I never knew |
I wanna be your hero |
And he spoke to my heart |
From the moment I prayed |
Here’s a pattern I made for you |
I wanna be your hero |
