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

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 1

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
