Twentieth Century Hero

I know you read between the lines
 When them up there say it's all fine
 Then break your back from nine to five
 To keep your two point four alive
 Well it's hymns for a Sunday
 And it's booze for a Monday
 And dreamers thinking one day
 It will all be taken care of
 (You're a hero)
 Zero, zero, zero
 Rather be Valentino
 Well don't run away, stay here and play
 Twentieth century hero
 Well I know you're never influenced
 By craze or fashions, zoo caress
 You didn't buy that car to show
 The guy next door where he can go
 Where your grass is the greenest
 And your life saccharinest
 Well your beach ain't the cleanest
 It will all be taken care of
 (You're a hero)
 Zero, hero, zero
 Cap in hand Valentino
 Well I hope you know I love you so
 Twentieth century hero
 ♪
 Twentieth century hero you
 Believe what you believe is true
 Opinion polls, who gives a damn
 Look, Errol Flynn, now there's a man
 With the price of the harvest
 Swept under the carpet
 And the big ones fall the hardest
 It will all be taken care of
 (You're a hero)
 Hero, hero, hero
 Vanity Valentino
 Well you're gonna be the death of me
 Twentieth century hero
 Hero, hero
 Vanity Valentino
 Well, you're gonna be the death of me
