The World Needs A Hero

An iron fist quietly sits Inside the velvet glove Take control, untouchable Just like God above I can't escape wrapped in red tape What will become of me? If I object then I defect My country 'tis of thee The White House is calling Tell them I'll call them back Just tell them anything Yeah, get them off my back The world needs a hero Not that I would ever lie But I have no choice Words I say heard today Are not mine just my voice NATO is on line 1 They want to talk to me Tell them that I'm not in Tell them that I'm not free The world needs a hero The world needs a hero Phantom rule, the hidden jewel Who's really in control? On puppet strings, a nation swings Undermined by moles The UN is on hold Tell them I'll call them back Yeah, tell them anything Just get them off my back The world needs a hero The world needs a hero Dave the White House is calling They want to talk to me Tell them that I can't be bought Tell them that I'm not free The world needs a hero The world needs a hero The world needs a hero The world needs a hero The world needs a hero
