Nobody's Hero

Stiff Little Fingers

TOTP 1980

I think it's time we talked this over

I think you've taken this too far

I never wanted to be different

Didn't ask to be nobody's star

Try and take control of it

Cos what you see is what you get

Try and take control of it

And not me

You say there's talk of revolution - so what's new?

You say there's fighting in the air

You think that I've got the solutions

But do you really think that's fair?

Try and take control of it

Cos what you see is what you get

Try and take control of it

And not me

Don't wanna be nobody's hero

Don't wanna be nobody's star

Don't wanna be nobody's hero

Get up get out be what you are

You think it's time you took me over

To do what you can't do yourself

But don't let heroes get your kicks for you

It's up to you and no-one else

Try and take control of it

Cos what you see is what you get

Try and take control of it

And you'll see

Don't wanna be nobody's hero

Don't wanna be nobody's star

Don't wanna be nobody's hero

Get up get out be what you are

You think you're nobody

And I get all the fun

But no-one is a nobody

Everyone is someone

Don't wanna be nobody's hero

Don't wanna be nobody's star

Don't wanna be nobody's hero

Get up get out be what you are

Be what you are...
