When I walk down the street
See the people who stop and stare and say
Haven't I seen that face somewhere a long time ago
When I walk down the street
See the stranger who says
Why, Hi,
With a
How you going, Buddy,
When you walked on by I thought I'd say hallo
They say:
Haven't I seen your face before
Weren't you the boy that used to live next door
Weren't you on television ev'ry night
Haven't I seen you round
Take a look at me
I'm Yesterday's Hero
Yesterday's Hero
that's all I be.
Take a look at me
I'm Yesterday's Hero
And Yesterday's Hero
is all that I'm gonna be
If I don't get together
make a new start
and be somebody better
AII that I'll be if
I don't get together now.
VVhen you walk down the street
now
If you know me
then pass me by
If you wonder what
I'm doing don't ask me why
I don't read the news.
When you walk down the street
If you're sorry then don't feel bad
If you followed my story
then just be glad
You ain't in my shoes.
Because
Haven't you seen my face before
Yes
I was the boy
who used to live next door
Yes
I was on television ev'ry night
Haven't you seen me round.
Take a look at me
I'm Yesterday's Hero [...]
