Curtain Call (from "Paradise City")

Is in town for one night only
Lust, fame and a feeling of the holy
A New king is crowned for your delight, yeah all right
Single file it's just that easy, a mere man to adore and believe me
Soon you'll be screaming with delight, yeah all right, yeah all right

Take it back before I fall
'Cause I am no hero
Take it back before I fall
'Cause I'm no hero

Behind the curtain there stands a statue, designed to sell as many as we want to
The consequences aren't worth your time, we're divine
A fresh idol for a suffering nation, a clean lamb for your slaughtering elation
Another victim of our need to be weak

So take it back, take it back before I fall
I am no, I am no hero, hero
So take it back, take it back before I fall
I am no, I am no hero, hero

The lights are on
The stage is set for failure
In your minds
I will burn in effigy
Burn
Burn
Burn
Forever, forever, forever

So take it back, take it back before I fall
I am no, I am no hero, hero
So take it back, take it back before I fall
I am no, I am no hero, hero
