Lyrics
Nobody's Hero
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I think it's time we talked this over
I think you've taken this too far
I never wanted to be different
Didn't ask to be nobody's star
Try to take control of it
Cos what you see is what you get
Try to take control of it and not me
You say there's talk of revolution - so what's new?
You say there's fighting in the air
You think that I've got the solutions
But do you really think that's fair?
Try to take control of it
Cos what you see is what you get
Try to take control of it and not me
Don't wanna be nobody's hero
I don't wanna be nobody's star
Don't wanna be nobody's hero
Get up get out be what you are
You think it's time you took me over
To do what you can't do yourself
But don't let heroes get your kicks for you
It's up to you and no one else
Try to take control of it
Cos what you see is what you get
Try to take control of it and you'll see
Don't wanna be nobody's hero
I don't wanna be nobody's star
Don't wanna be nobody's hero
Get up get out be what you are
You think you're nobody, and I have all the fun
But no one is a nobody, everyone is someone
Don't wanna be nobody's hero
I don't wanna be nobody's star
Don't wanna be nobody's hero
Get up get out be what you are
Be what you are
