Song Lyrics


They're Callin' Him Hero
by Paul Wright

Album: Hero - The Rock Opera


Newsies:
In late breaking stories….. Fans flock to hear the hear the miracle
Man….. Latest reports are of a young girl in Harlem being raised….
Yes, you heard right….. Raised…. As in one minute –dead next
minute alive!....At present further details are rather sketchy….
Nigelle Brickman for BBC America…Fans flock to hear the miracle
Man….Thousands gathered today in Central Park to hear the miracle man
who sings…who preaches…sometimes performs magic tricks…..
ITV news has learned that Icon Police are at present only monitoring
The situation with this preacher, His gatherings are largely peaceful,
No laws being broken….
More and more reports o soul man sightings…Film at eleven

Hunter:
News flash-Face is splashed
Over TV screens, Radio beams, Newspaper scenes
He's like everywhere, and into everything
And it seems like he sings freedom like a king

People listening to every word He says
And of course they do-He raised a girl from the dead
He sings at the raves-He stop and He prays
And He says there's a way that we can all be changed
It's like the whole world's got their eyes on Him
And it seems like it's all just beginning

People flock to His shows as His followin' grows
He talks to the Father like someone He knows
With the touch of His hand we see the lame stand
The eyes of the blind see fine at His command
This miracle man's a champion for the people

Chorus
And I hear they call Him- I hear they call Him Hero
Singin a His song now for the people
They're callin Him Hero
From the city to the burrough
They're callin Him Hero
Singin a His song now for the people
They're callin Him Hero
They're callin Him Hero

Yo Yo this Man ain't Icon at all
Talkin bout some sorta city of gold
And how we all gone wrong in the song of our hearts
And how he came to settle that part from the start

He talks of hope and livin in a promised land
And they come from miles- Every woman and man
And He tells a tale bout liberty
For all ears that hear, and eyes that see

Tell all your enemies love-live-and forgive
It's with hope and faith and love that He gives

Some say He's amazing-Some are callin Him crazy
Some say He's the one that we have all be waiting
All the thugs in Mercedes, He healing their babies
They're leavin their drugs, like He's changing their craving

I think just maybe He's bout to blow this up
The Power's that be can't be likin this stuff
The Chief of police-To Kai the high Priest
Must be feelin the heat every time that He speaks
I don't see any equal to rally the people
Better than someone…

Chorus
And I hear they call Him- I hear they call Him Hero
Singin a His song now for the people
They're callin Him Hero
From the city to the burrough
They're callin Him Hero
Singin a His song now for the people
They're callin Him Hero
They're callin Him Hero
