HERO

He'll fly downtown

And turn up at the scene.

He'll walk in slow motion;

Every woman's dream.

There'd be the letter 's'

Printed on his chest.

That famous blinding logo,

To show he is the best.

His cape will whip around,

His muscles so defined.

For a damsel in distress,

Tonight, me he'll find.

He'll parade in the door,

Flash a smile so white,

His fists will be clenched

For a villan, for a fight.

I'll politely approach him

And introduce myself.

His fists will loosen,

'I thought you needed help?'

'There's nothing you can do sir,

You've left it far too late.

There's no point in you being here,

In coming here today.

Not even a superpower

Can make a difference in this world.

And there is no such hero

Who can save this girl.'
