They're building him up

You see his face on TV

He's turning up

In every magazine

Got his sights set on you

He's a man of renown

But you're nobody's fool

Cause you've been around

Now he's everybody's hero

The talk of the town

Everybody's hero let you down

Just another hero on the ground

You knew him when

he was nothing at all

You remember a friend

Who never thought he could fall

And the world looked so dim

When you opened your eyes

You watched his will to win

Cut him down to size

Now he's everybody's...

Too late to worry

When you're standing tall

Too soon to cry

When you lose it all
