Daddy, you don't have to worry
Your little boy has made a plan
And I know you ain't got much money
You're always doing what you can

Remember late night television?
You couldn't wake me up for school
And I'd forever be in trouble
You are the man who can't be fooled

And I know you had it rough
When mama, she ran off
But that's alright with me
And I know you drank too much
You were almost losing touch
But that's alright with me

Because some superheroes won't ever fly away
They keep it all together even when they've made mistakes
They're just ordinary people fighting all their demons away
'Cause some heroes don't wear capes

Daddy, you won't have to worry
I've got it all here in my hands
Writing songs to make a living
I'll get you out that little house

Because I know you had it rough
You felt like giving up
But that's alright with me
And I know you drank too much
You were almost losing touch
But that's alright with me

Because some superheroes won't ever fly away
They keep it all together even when they've made mistakes
They're just ordinary people fighting all their demons away
'Cause some heroes don't wear capes

Some heroes don't wear capes
