|
It's never been the same since you returned from dreamin' |
|
With your nursery rhyme excuses and your picture postcards gleamin' |
|
Tellin' everyone who looks your way 'bout people and their sinnin' |
|
While your left field verse is fallin' in proprtion to your winnin' |
|
And I can't be your hero today |
|
I'm through with the simple games you play |
|
It just might take some time to even up the score |
|
But I can't be your soldier home from war |
|
And there you sit shining that there's still hope for us |
|
While nature holds the handcuffs on a Capricorn and Taurus |
|
There's nothing you can do or say to get me to your camp |
|
Go fill up all your savings books and buy yourself a lamp |
|
And I can't be your hero today |
|
Your wholesale price is much too high to pay |
|
Bargain basement atmosphere is no way to sell love |
|
And I can't be your superman above |
|
No I can't be your hero today |
|
That is all I really want to say |
|
Go find a leading man who wants to play |
|
But I can't be your hero today |
