Lean Times for Heroes Lyrics

it starts with a teaspoon of trouble,
it ends in bliss and penury
there's no pension plan for heroes,
so you'll want to get the hell out of my way
so pack it up, lean times for heroes
pack it up, call it a day
their pockets and the jails are empty
call it even, heave away

so pack it up, lean times for heroes
pack it up, call it a day
their pockets and the jails are empty
call it even, heave away

just because i have an errant ambition,
just because i want a better life
just because i made piracy a mission,
you might as well punish a kid for coloring outside the lines

it starts with sleep deprivation,
it ends in a double life
is there a back door in this place?
i'll not be going quietly today, no not today
so pack it up, lean times for heroes
pack it up, call it a day
their pockets and the jails are empty
call it even, heave away

so pack it up, lean times for heroes
pack it up, call it a day
their pockets and the jails are empty
call it even, heave away
pack it up, lock it up, drink it up, f*** it up
dance it up, keep it up, smash it up
turn it up, tear it up, swing it up, fill it up
smoke it up, step right up, crack it up, step right up
heave it up, lock it up, dream it up, f*** it up
keep it up, keep it up, punch it up, fill it up
shoot it up, tear it up
f*** it up!

step right,
step right up son

have you an errant ambition? do you want a better life?
here's a pension plan for heroes, just keep your valuables outside
does your life lack mission? would you like a free ride?
you want to kill your idols?
oh, do step right on up and try
