Songteksten

They built a hero out of expectations
And what a hopeless hero was he
With sticks for legs, well he shook when the wind blew, even slightly
And he welcomed the smiles
Welcomed the applause
He hoped they'd never forget just who they thought he was
They dressed him up in rich man's clothes
And told him he was beautiful
Then they expected miracles
Then they expected miracles
His parents were pleased
They went to all the parties
He was groomed for greatness from the time he was young
Raised on a diet of television
He was taught to listen, kept dumb
And he welcomed desire
And reckless luxury
And the world soaked up every drop of drama
And insecurity
They dressed him up in rich man's clothes
And told him he was beautiful
Then they expected miracles
Then they expected miracles
Then one day his admirers just quit him
They just packed up their paints and were gone
And he stood alone
Their beautiful disaster
Wonderin' where he'd gone wrong
He wanted their smiles
Wanted the applause
No one would look him in the eye now
No one returned his calls
They dressed him up in rich man's clothes
And told him he was beautiful
Then they expected miracles
Then they expected miracles
