Replacement Heroes

You’ve been
Down in the coal mines
Trapped on the sidelines
Victim of hard times

We’re so happy to see you
Don’t want to be you
Who gave you that veto

Come on
Enough already
Come on
We know you’re ready
Come on
You’d never know
Come on
all the lies we tell to get you to the show

We are your replacement heroes

You’ve been
Following white lines
Paying the poor fines
Squandering your mind
We’ve been
Doing the white crimes
Plundering gold mines
Having a fine time

Come on
My hands are steady
Come on
It’s mom’s spaghetti
Come on
The chicks are ready
Come on
Dead celebrity

(chorus) we are..

Come on
Where do you get it
Come on
It’s ever ready
Come on
The cash is steady
Come on
Dead celebrity

  

We are your replacement heroes
Might not be much but its better than zero

Hi there kids welcome to the show
Don’t you wanna hear all those songs you used to know
Pink is dead like so many before him
Stack the bodies up before it gets too morbid

We are you replacement heroes
