I wish I were a performer

And you were my fan

If I could be your hero (If I could be your hero)

You could be my man (You could be my man)



If you thought I was smart

If you thought I was neat

It would melt my heart

And make it skip a beat



If I had famous parents, would you pay attention

To every word I say?

I'd know you were lyin', it would leave me cryin'

I hope you know that's not the way to do things



I know it's hard to love a person who can't really see

But don't get discouraged, it doesn't have to be

I wish I had superpowers, how nice that would be

I'd make other girls invisible, so you'd have to look at me



I'd be drop-dead gorgeous (I'd be drop-dead gorgeous)

That you couldn't stand (That you couldn't stand)

If I could be your hero (If I could be your hero)

You could be my man (You could be my man)



If I had lots of money, would you think I'm funny

And laugh at every joke I tell?

I don't think I'd like it when you go "ha ha ha"

You're going straight to H-E-L-L-O, goodbye



I wish I were a performer

And you were my fan

If I could be your hero (If I could be your hero)

You could be my man (You could be my man)



'Cause I know you don't love me

But I think you can

If I could be your hero (If I could be your hero)

You could be my man (You could be my man)

If I could be your hero (If I could be your hero)

You could be my man (You could be my man)
