I wish i could fly
Like a jet plane
I could read the minds
Of my enemies
Worship a poster
Carry a lunch box
Have a super hero
To come and rescue me

I know we're only human, only made with flesh and blood
I shouldn't have such expectations waiting here for love

[[Chorus]]

Whatever happened to the heroes?
Fast food, fast cars and remote control
I just need someone, to look up to
To help me down, this winding road

(Whatever happened to the heroes)

Joe Demagio
Martin Luther King
Mother Theresa
Princess Diana
Now it's Kurt Cobane
Take a pill for the pain
Celebrity mentality
Before you even spell your name

I know I'm full of imperfections, baby aren't we all
But i could use a good example, stop before i fall
(Stop before I fall, what happened to)

Whatever happened to the heroes?
(Oh, Oh)
Fast food, fast cars and remote control
(Remote control)
I just need someone, to look up to
To help me down, this winding road
(This winding road)
So whatever happened to the heroes?

We fall to the waste side
You've been to the dark side
Buried alive
Before my eyes
Been brought to life
A zillion times
They like to build you up
Just to break you down, down, down
Just to break you down, oh

Whatever happened to the heroes?
(Whatever happened to the heroes?)
Fast food, fast cars and remote control
(Oh yeah, what happened to the heroes, what happened to the heroes?)
I just need someone, to look up to
To help me down, this winding road
(Help me down, help me down)
So whatever happened to the heroes?
Whatever happened to the heroes?

(Whatever happened to the heroes?)
Fast food, fast cars and remote control
(Oh yeah)
I just need someone to look up to
(To look up to)
To help me down this winding road
(Yeah, oh, oh)
