Lyrics

So you need to be a hero, kid

Well, that's a shame

That used to be my speciality

But, kid, I quit the game

That's a road that's paved with disappointment

Pain for which there ain't no ointment

Torture and abuses

But a kid of Zeus'

Says his future all depends on me

My answer has to be

We'll see

Let's start with, uh, accuracy, heh?

Three arrows in the bullseye

I'm all out of hope, a shell of what I once was

So far from my glory days when my name caused buzz

Retired to my couch, kid

A stubborn old grouch, kid

I don't need a slouch, kid

And, woah

Not bad, but lacking focus

Now, kid, I'm gonna take you to the second stage

The art of distraction

I've been out to pasture, pal, my ambition gone

Humdrum in my atrium, shouting, "Get off my lawn!"

You need an advisor who's hungry and wiser

A "cut down to sizer"

Hey!

I think you missed, kid

If I'm your one last hope, then your luck's run out

Stuck with some rundown bum overcome by doubt

Was training the A-team before I withdrew

If I'm your one last hope, show what you can do

Alright, phase three

Now, let's test this strength for real, huh? Pull

Demi-gods have faced the odds and ended up a mockery

Don't believe the stories that you read on all the crockery

To be a true hero, kid, is a, a dying art

Like painting a masterpiece, it's a, a work of heart

It takes more than sinew

Comes down to what's in you

You have to continue to grow and grow

Okay, you've got more pull than I thought

But do you have speed? Show me what you're working with

Come on, kid, come on, get 'em

[Instrumental]

Ski-bi-da-da-do-do, yeah

We've been at this for a week

Now, strength, speed, accuracy

Combine them, come on

Ha, yeah, that's it, kid, that's it, come on

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ho-ho-ho

Alright, kid, count me in

Kid, you've got one good shot to get home for good

And yet you bet on me to come through, knock wood

Let's hope that my know-how still knows what to do

It's an uphill slope

Keep pushing that envelope

If I'm your one last hope

Let's hope we both come through
