So ya wanna be a hero kid
Well whoop dee doo
I have been around the block
before with blockheads
just like you
Each and everyone
a disappointment
Pain ow 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 O.K.
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 but oh
There goes my ulser
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
and you'll have to do
Demi gods 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
