Three Minute 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.
They ask if you're all right
You say yes
But all the time you know
It's just a mess
It's 5:00p.m. and you're on your way home
Just another day
With that endless grey drone
Three minute hero, I wanna be
Three minute hero, I wanna be
Three minute hero, I wanna be
A three minute hero
Drag yourself along the road
Sit on the bus
Switch on your transistor
Start causing a fuss
It's eleven p.m. and you're on your way home
Just another night
With that endless grey drone
Three minute hero, I wanna be
Three minute hero, I wanna be
Three minute hero, I wanna be
A three minute hero
I wanna be, I wanna b, I wanna be
A three minute hero
It's too early in the morning
Stupid job
Don't wanna eat, can't think straight
The same as yestereday
It's seven a.m. and you're leaving home
Just another day
With that endless grey drone
Three minute hero, I wanna be
Three minute hero, I wanna be
Three minute hero, I wanna be
A three minute hero
