Redrama - Hero Lyrics

Hero Lyrics
By Lasse Mellberg

This won’t pay your bills
or get you a baby-sitter for the late night shift, I know
Hope you know (yeah! ) you’re my hero (yeah!)
But I pray you staying safe
I ain’t here to start no facebook debate, I just
Hope you know (yeah! ) you’re my hero (yeah!)

So while I sit on the couch
thinking about
how I now figured it out
what this whole Covid is about
I’m running my mouth
on social media
I’m a genie, a genius
immediately sharing every single feed of mine
You going to work
going in first
some come in an ambulance, some will go in a hearse
In so many words
You a Hero
If nobody heard
need to repeat so,
a Hero, Hero
it’s only a word
But it’s the best that I got
say I what I mean though
need to add a zero
to that paycheque that you got
(“Be the change you wanna see,
the change that you wanna be”)
…bullshit when you ain’t had a day-off
in three weeks
Did I mention
I don’t know shit about you job
seriously trying
To make you feel appreciated now
wishing you find time to listen to me rhyme
Though you got bigger fish to fry
while you kissing you kids goodbye
And heading to work to the hospital
To every nurse know you my hero
Whatever occurs in time we’ll know
When history looks
back in the history books
And you’re Hero, (You a Hero)
To your paycheque add a zero (Add a zero)
I don’t know bout the politics though
I just don’t wanna keep on
taking people for granted
when we know
they the ones that taking the risk

God damn it there she go, there he go, making sure
that they doing everything possible in the..
hospital now I gotta go
let em know in the grocery store you’re my
Hero, Hero, Hero, Hero (Now that’s you)
Hero, Hero, Hero, Hero (And what you do)
Hero, Hero, Hero, Hero
But that’s not gonna pay your bills though…

Cuz you don’t need my praises
You don’t need no song
what you need’s a raise, you need it now,
c’mon, c’mon
you don’t need my praises
working all night long
Hero’s underpaid, underrated
this shit is wrong

Getting called a hero hey
I can’t put that on my plate!)
when what you need is more money
Now you can take that shit to the bank!
Getting called a hero hey
Now I can’t put that on my plate!
when what you need is more money
Now you can take that…

A first it was get gone, head home, there’s no
reason for panickin’ though yet so, be calm
but if you in the risk zone, just know, this though
That if you over seventy no, please don’t, meet no..
nobody you love, nobody you need
How bout family though? miss those, people…
can’t see em, can’t hug, can’t kiss no
And that’s when it get cold, this lonely home
Whole world standing still though, it’s all real no
work but the bills gone still grow..we don’t
Really know anything so, Covid bingo
What news to believe though. click on links so…
We’re shown, shitloads big false info it’s on
every single screen so hypnosis on cell-phones
It’s a big ol’ shit-show this sure will blow, hear no evil,
see no evil
But can’t shut my eyelids no, it don’t help no-
body and ain’t the point of this song, this song, this song
This one is for the hospital hero, hero
This one is for the hospital hero, hero
I don’t think that you hearing me though clear so, this for
you working in the grocery store, hero, hero
Sure thing the Covid don’t give no shit so
It don’t care if you rich or if you shit poor
Laying your head on the pillow please don’t free fall
Don’t let the anxiety grow, big no, because
We gone get through it now we holding on
All of my heros now keep on, be strong.
