Heroism

I'm fit to fight
 My name is Pip
 If luck be a lady tonight
 Then baby I'm all about the dick
 No shit, nah
 Not a bit of billy bullshit
 If something ain't right
 Then you probably shouldn't force it
 Fire in your eye?
 Take it to the bridge and torch it
 Forthwit
 This ain't a game changer
 'Cause I ain't playing
 I'm too old to feign danger
 Shit, my hair is graying
 Fuck your plain mangers
 I was born in the rain
 While a hoard of shamed strangers
 Were calling my name
 I'm Nicholas Cage
 I could eat a beat for days
 Retreat to seek the pace
 Meet and greet the bass
 Dress it up with words
 Complete from feet to face
 Secrete technique with grace
 Defeating the need for haste
 I dream of heroism
 I dream of heroism
 I dream of hero-hero-heroism
 I dream of heroism
 I dream of heroism
 I dream of hero-hero-heroism
 It's my endeavor to weather like good leather
 You should never sever the pain, it's not clever
 Call me anything you want Use any fucking letter
 But please rest assured
 I've been called worse by better
 A fools worst endeavor
 When false words are tethered
 Is to run instead of just walk
 Towards adverse weather
 Measure the pleasure and pain till they're the same
 And if ain't level pour it out and start it again
 Consider me a little ploy to destroy and annoy
 Your little ode to joy for the hoi polloi
 Oy, it gets more dark
 Than a rorschach blot mark
 Read by an oligarch
 On a fucking polygraph
 Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
 They say you gotta laugh
 Cover up your mental scars
 With a little jolly mask
 Put all your fears in a frown
 And swallow them down
 Like the tears of a clown
 When no one's around
 How you living like a piggie
 In the middle of a ravine?
 Trying to make your way out but you get
 Stuck in the...
 Is it...
 Trying to make your way...
 When you get...
 Stuck in the...
 It ain't about glass half full
 Or glass half empty
 Shut up and down what's left
 Or fill that shit back up again, see
 I dream of heroism
 I dream of heroism
 I dream of hero-hero-heroism
 I dream of heroism
 I dream of heroism
 I dream of hero-hero-heroism
