Send "Heroes" Ringtone to your Cell 
Why are all our heroes so imperfect Why do
they always bring me down Why are all our
heroes so imperfect The statue in the park has
lost his crown
William Faulkner drunk and
depressed Dorothy Parker mean, drunk and
depressed And that guy in Seven Years in Tibet
turned out to be a nazi The founding fathers
all had slaves, the explorers slaughtered the
braves, The Old Testament God can be so
petty
Paul McCartney jealous of John, even
more so now that he's gone Dylan was so mean to
Donovan in that movie Pablo Picasso cruel to
his wives My favorite poets took their own
lives Orson Welles peaked at 25, ballooned
before our eyes and he sold bad
wine
Heard Babe Ruth was full of
malice Lewis Carroll I'm sure did
Alice Plato in the cave with those very young
boys TS Elliott hated Jews, FDR didn't save
the Jews All the French joined the resistance
after the war Raymond Chandler drunk and
depressed Tennessee Williams drunk and
depressed Think I'll just get drunk and
depressed.
