Lyrics

I’m pondering on a scenario in which I am the hero It’s something I am prone to Just pondering on scenarios in which I am the hero And somehow I ride to the rescue

I’m walking past a house on Nether Street When all of a sudden the whole of the second floor goes up in flames Little tommy’s on his own today And no one else can hear his calls By some twist of fate his door’s blocked But from somewhere I summon the strength of a god Even lose a little blood As we’re diving from the hall The house begins to fall

I’m pondering on a scenario in which I am the hero It’s something I am prone to Just pondering on scenarios in which I am the hero And somehow I ride to the rescue I’m on a late night bus from angel And three big drunken guys start picking on a girl While mere mortals stare at freesheets I’m rising to my feet as I command them to cease Now I’ve had no formal training But my arms and legs let fly with all the precision of Jackie Chan or Bruce Lee Now wouldn’t that be a sight to see? And as they stumble out the doors I’m taking the applause

I’m pondering on a scenario in which I am the hero It’s something I am prone to Just pondering on scenarios in which I am the hero And somehow I ride to the rescue

I got your pain laid out before me Like different outfits on a pre-party bed At times like this there are no answers If only there was something useful to be said Then from the endless depths of nowhere Golden words come tumbling, shimmering straight out from my soul Now wouldn’t that be a sight to behold? That something I could say Could get you through the day But I’m only

Pondering on a scenario in which I am the hero It’s something I am prone to Just pondering on scenarios in which I am the hero And somehow I ride to the rescue
