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 locked
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 I've got no answers
If only there was something useful to be said
Then from the endless depths of nowhere
Golden words come tumbling, shimmering straight 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
