Heroes

Heroes Lyrics

Here comes the hero
At temperature zero
Warming his hands on the crowd.
He says "now that I've changed
I'm exactly the same."
But nobody hears 'cause the cheering's too loud.

Hypocrisy on a massive scale
Hero/cult/revolutionary.
It's all a show.
But now we know
All they want is your money.

Hero lost his conscience, yes.
But now he's getting serious.
"Forget the system, let's have fun."
Hero! Take the money and run!

The heroes are forgotten now.
Floundered on their reputation.
The old elite
Came off the street
And wound up as an institution.

The next generation won't produce
The heroes and the fashion freaks.
There's nothing new
In what we do,
Just commitment and beliefs.
