An iron fist quietly sits inside the velvet glove
Take control, untouchable just like God above
I can't escape, wrapped in red tape, what will become of me?
If I object, then I defect, my country 'tis of thee
The White House is calling
Tell them I'll call them back
Just tell them anything
Yeah, get them off my back
The world needs a hero
Not that I would ever lie but I have no choice
Words I say heard today are not mine, just my voice
NATO is on line one
They want to talk to me
Tell them that I'm not in
Tell them that I'm not free
The world needs a hero
Phantom rule, the hidden jewel
Who's really in control?
On puppet strings, a nation swings
Undermined by moles
The UN is on hold
Tell them I'll call them back
Yeah, tell them anything
Just get them off my back
The world needs a hero
Dave, the White House is calling
They want to talk to me
Tell them that I can't be bought
Tell them that I'm not free
The world needs a hero
