A Real Hero<br>
--------------
<br><br>
What is a hero?<br>
Someone in a red cape?<br>
Some guy who goes around by night?<br>
Someone who uses web like tape?<br>
<br>
Sure, they may be heroes<br>
Old ones at that<br>
But will they ever be seen running<br>
Alongside a purple cat?<br>
<br>
How about destroying a robot factory?<br>
Made by the evilest of minds<br>
Or stopping a space station disaster<br>
Just to save man kind<br>
<br>
Real heroes don't wear capes<br>
They don't shoot webs<br>
Or pick a time of day<br>
Real heroes will save us<br>
No matter what people say<br>
<br>
They won't need a secret identity<br>
They won't need to save by night<br>
They won't need spider powers<br>
And lordy they certaintly don't need<br>
Those weird, flashy tights!<br>
<br>
It doesn't matter how<br>
It doesn't matter when<br>
It doesn't matter why<br>
It only matters then<br>
<br>
They come in all colors<br>
All shapes and size<br>
They don't have to be human<br>
To bring about evil's demise<br>
<br>
They won't need a special tonic<br>
To make their special powers<br>
One thing is certain, and I know this is true<br>
They'll never be cool<br>
Like that fast Sonic blue!
