Yesterday's Hero

When I walk down the streets
 See the people who stop and stare and say
 Haven't I seen that face somewhere a long time ago
 When I walk down the streets
 See the stranger who says 'why, hi'
 With a 'how you goin', buddy'
 When you walked on by I thought I'd say hallo
 They say: haven't I seen your face before
 Weren't you the boy that used to live next door
 Weren't you on television every night
 Haven't I seen you round
 Take a look at me, I'm yesterday's hero
 Yesterday's hero, that's all I'll be
 Take a look at me, I'm yesterday's hero
 And yesterday's hero is all that I'm gonna be if I don't get together
 Make a new start and be somebody better
 All that I'll be if I don't get together now
 When you walk down the streets
 If you know me, then pass me by
 If you wonder what I'm doing
 Don't ask me why I don't read the news
 When you walk down the streets
 If you're sorry then don't feel bad
 If you followed my story
 Then just be glad you ain't in my shoes
 Because haven't you seen my face before
 Yes, I was the boy who used to live next door
 Yes, I was on television every night
 Haven't you seen me round
 Take a look at me, I'm yesterday's hero
 Yesterday's hero, that's all I'll be
 Take a look at me, I'm yesterday's hero
 And yesterday's hero is all that I'm gonna be if I don't get together
 Make a new start and be somebody better
 All that I'll be if I don't get together now
 Yesterday's hero, yesterday's hero
 Yesterday's hero, yesterday's hero
