We Need A Real Life Hero Now

The comic books we loved to read When we were children small Were filled with icons, brave and true Who never let us fall. Oh Superman, you were so strong! You flew without two wings. You helped the weak, the frail, the poor And strode as one, with kings. A child may watch with shock and awe Amazing feats he sees. His Super Hero flew alone Above the stormy seas. We need a real life hero now. To ease the pain of war. Someone who knows just what to do A plan worth living for. When oil spills clog our precious seas And no-one takes the blame. We need a stand-up type of guy Who'll fiercely face the shame. It doesn't take a super power To figure out what's wrong. Our man would have a brilliant mind Not muscles like King Kong. He'd take command and show the way To wipe out greed and pride. But with a firm and gentle hand He'd put ill will aside. This special man would make us proud And all the world would cheer; Oh hurry please, we need you now Let's put an end to fear. Our country needs you "super" man; (A woman will do too!) Please save our land so we can cry "It's fit for me and you."
