They say you never come home, boy you been drivinand' too fast
when you gonna shape up, how long is this gonna last
you may be laughinand' today, but listen to some good advice
anand' take a look at tomorrow in a workinand' manand's weary eyes

smile for the camera, do what youand're told
well you can take away the ladder and'cos i ainand't gonna climb it
if thereand's a stairway to heaven i swear iand'm gonna find it
Well there are winners and outlaws and leaders and lovers
behind every man in the news
and one thing i know is behind everyone thereand's a boy who had nothinand' to lose
behind every man who has somethinand' to say
thereand's a boy who had nothinand' to prove
anand' every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude
every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude

You gotta love me for keeps, feather the nest

steaminand' up and down the speedway on the back aand' your bike
Well there are winners and outlaws and leaders and lovers
behind every man in the news
