i want to be your real life superstar 
i think i've told you once before 
line them up 
bring them in 
wear me out to entertain you 

i wanna be the hero that you set your eyes upon 
build me up to tear me down 
i wanna be the hero that you set your eyes upon 
choose the next poor fool to wear the crown 

i wanna be your real life know it all 
a bleeding heart has felt the truth 
nine more years 
i've never seen 
anyone whos perfect needed god to intervene 

i wanna be the hero that you set your eyes upon 
build me up to tear me down 
i wanna be the hero that you set your eyes upon 
choose the next poor fool to wear the crown 

i wanna be the hero that you set your eyes upon 
build me up to tear me down 
i wanna be the hero that you set your eyes upon 
choose the next poor fool to wear the crown
