Текст песни I Can't Be Your Hero Today - Jimmy Buffett

It's never been the same since you returned from dreamin'
With your nursery rhyme excuses your picture postcards gleamin'
Tellin' everyone who looks your way 'bout people and their sinnin'
While you left field verse is fallin' in proportion to your winnin'

And I can't be your hero today
I'm through with the simple games you play
It just may take some time for me to even up the score
But I can't be your soldier home from war

You fill my head with figures proving that there's still hope for us
While nature holds the handcuffs on a Capricorn and Taurus
There's nothing you can do or say to get me to your camp
Go buy yourself a savings books and get yourself a lamp

And I can't be your hero today
That is all I really wanna say
You can cover me in Lilacs and bathe my feet in wine
But I can't be your Tarzan on a line

As our conversation leads us, to the final trapdoor question
I find myself responding to the power suggestion
And certain other stimuli that help me to reveal
What I tell you to your face,
How I really feel, you're not real Lady Jane
And I can't be your hero today
Your wholesale price is much to high to pay
A bargain counter atmosphere is no way to sell love
And I can't be your blessing from above

No I can't be your hero today
That is all I really want to say
Go find a leading man who wants to play
But I can't be your hero today
