So, ya wanna be a hero, kid Well, whoop-dee-do I have been around the block before With blockheads just like you Each and everyone a disappointment Pain for which there ain't no ointment So much for excuses Though a kid of Zeus is Asking me to jump into the fray My answer is two words Okay, oh, oh You win Oh, gods Oy vay I'd given up hope that someone would come along A fellow who'd ring the bell for once, not the gong The kind who wins trophies Won't settle for low fees At least semi-pro fees but no I get the greenhorn I've been out to pasture pal, my ambition gone Content to spend lazy days and to graze my lawn But you need an advisor A satyr, but wiser A good merchandiser and whoa There goes my ulcer I'm down to one last hope and I hope it's you Though, kid, you're not exactly a dream come true I've trained enough turkeys Who never came through You're my one last hope so you'll have to do Demigods have faced the odds And ended up a mockery Don't believe the stories that You read on all the crockery To be a true hero, kid, is a dying art Like painting a masterpiece, it's a work of heart It takes more than sinew Comes down to what's in you You have to continue to grow Now that's more like it I'm down to one last shot and my last high note Before that blasted underworld gets my goat My dreams are on you, kid Go make 'em come true Climb that uphill slope Keep pushing that envelope You're my one last hope and, kid, it's up to you Yeah

If I'm a bad person, you don't like me Well, I guess I'll make my own way. It's a circle. I mean cycle. I can't excite you anymore. Where's your gavel? Your jury? What's my offense this time? You're not a judge but if you're gonna judge me Well, sentence me to another life. Don't wanna hear your sad songs! I don't wanna feel your pain! When you swear it's all my fault Cause you know we're not the same. We're not the same! Oh, we're not the same! Yeah, the friends who stuck together We wrote our names in blood But I guess you can't accept That the change is good. But it's good, it's good!

It's not a war, no, it's not a rapture I'm just a person but you can't take it. The same tricks that once fooled me. They won't get you anywhere! I'm not the same kid from your memory Well, now I can fend for myself. Don't wanna hear your sad songs! I don't wanna feel your pain! When you swear it's all my fault But you know we're not the same.
