One Last Hope

So ya wanna be a hero kid
Well whoop de do

I have been around the block before
With block heads just like you

Each and evryone a disappointment
Pain for which there aint no ointment
So much for excuses
Though a kid of zeus is
Asking me to jump into the fray

My answer is two words

OK

Uff oh
You win

Oh Gods

Oy vay

Id given up hope that someone would come

Along

A fellow whod ring the bell for once
Not the gong

The kind who wins trophies
Wont settle for low fees
At least semi pro fees
But no I get the green horn
Ive been out to pasture pal my ambition gone

Content to spend lazy days and to graze my lawn

But you need an advisor
A satyr but wiser

A good merchandiser
And oohh
There goes my ulcer
Im down to one last hope
And I hope its you

Though kid youre not exactly
A dream come true

Ive trained enough turkeys

Who never came through

Youre my one last hope
So youll have to do

Demi Gods have faced the odds
And ended up a mockery

Dont believe the stories
That you read on all the crockery
To be a true hero kid is a dying art

Like painting a master piece its a work of heart

It takes more than sinew

Comes down to whats in you

You have to continue to grow
Now thats more like it

Im down to one last shoot
And my last high note

Before thatblasted under world
Gets my goat

My dreams are on you kid

Go make em come true

Climb that uphil slope
Keep pushing that envelope

Youre my one last hope
And kid its up to you
Yea
