Hero

It wasn't the leprechaun It wasn't the Easter bunny It wasn't Santa Claus With his cider paws And his bag of coal That stole my child Made me grow old The man is just a man like any The man is just a man The man is just a man like any The man is just a man It wasn't the day go down It wasn't the burning sound It wasn't years go by and mama died and went under ground That stole my child made me grow old The man is just a man like any The man is just a man The man is just a man like any The man is just a man Now daddy was a man like the heroes on TV Until I caught him chasing the cat up a tree And he made the world go round He made the sun go down The day I met my dad was the day that I met gravity The day I met my dad was the day that I touched down Touched down Touched down Touched down The man is just a man like any The man is just a man The man is just a man like any The man is just a man Do as I say to do Not as you see me do Well I saw you do it Saw your soul go down in hell It's just as well Better than lies The man is just a man like any The man is just a man The man is just a man like any The man is just a man Now daddy was the man like the heroes on TV Until I caught him chasing the cat up a tree And he made the world go round He made the sun go down They day I met my dad was the day that I met gravity The day I met my dad was the day that I touched down Touched down Touched down Touched down Touched down
