You can make somethin' out of nothin', my friend Make yourself a little bit of money to spend You can sing your song everybody knows You can walk in with the skinniest girl You can carve your initials all over the world Put on your best big rock-n-roll pose What are you? Some kind of hero, doin' everything that you can? You think that everybody's watchin', but nobody gives a damn Nobody gives a damn You can walk a wire and you don't need a mitt Oh, the best damn thing that they haven't seen yet Give 'em a chance to fall in love with you You can sing a tune to a million or two Have your name at the top of the list of who's-who It don't mean nothin' when the rent is due What are you? Some kind of hero, doin' everything that you can? You think that everybody's watchin', but nobody gives a damn Nobody gives a damn Nobody gives a damn Nobody cares what you do or say They'll forget about you anyway Don't you worry, it's a waste of time Take your number and get back in line What are you? Some kind of hero, doin' everything that you can? You think that everybody's love you, but nobody gives a damn Nobody gives a damn Nobody gives a damn Nobody gives a damn
