I really want to know
What you had in store
I couldn't really tell
Perhaps was just as well
I came here with a dream
And I just had to see
If my dream would soar
I knocked on every door
His whole life was written
Written there inside
His new weekly bible
The modern T.V. Guide
Every night he stares back at the screen
A man only sees what he wants to see
When he's in his mind
Where he is what he wants to be
Living in a world where he's safe from reality
Won't you take a chance on this night child
and follow me
Don't need no super heroes
Don't need no movie stars
Don't need no politicians
In big black shiny cars
Don't need no cowboys (actually sings "Don't need no preacher who's
Smokin' Marlboro cigarettes Church is my T.V."
A man only sees what he wants to see
When he's in his mind
Where he is what he wants to be
Living in a world where he's safe from reality
Won't you take a chance on this night
And follow
Me
Once was a broken hero
The kind that we all know
