Heroes

And to me everyone of them was a hero
standing in the cold cold morning light
every single one of them was a hero
standing up for their rights.
And don’t let no-body tell you no different
no newspaper phoney or friend
'cos when the book has finally been written
you know the Heroes always beat the villians in the end.
With head held high and proud, stand up and sing it loud
no tin pot tyrant, no self-made giant,
nothing’s gonna stop us now.
And the traitors who’s heads were turned
and who’s loyalty were misplaced
don’t have to say one single word
'cos it’s written all over their face
and the leader will come in the last
and the last will win the race.
And the order will all be changing
when the Heroes finally take their rightful place.
With head held high and proud, stand up and sing it loud
no tin pot tyrant, no crack-pot giant,
nothing’s gonna stop us now.
One swallow don’t make a summer
one battle don’t win no war
one roll by the drummer
will soon settle the score
and the Heroes will come out fighting
like they’ve always done
shoulder to shoulder together,
line by line 'till the final victory is won.
With head held high and proud, stand up and sing it loud
no tin pot tyrant, no crack-pot giant,
nothing’s gonna stop us now.
