Hard Times for Heroes (Demo)

[Verse 1]
Once I had a quest to save a sleeping beauty
Couldn't wait to carry out my prince-ly duty
Bramble, I cut through it
Dragon, yeah, I slew it
So inspired, giving the required kiss
What bliss

[Chorus 1]
But now it's hard times for heroes
Got no lass to save now
Lasses are so brave now
They're the ones who earn the praise
And it's hard times for heroes
Shield right to the rescue
Meanwhile, at your desk you sigh and gaze
And now true love's kisses
Not something she misses
It's hard times for heroes nowadays

[Verse 2]
Once I had to do an evil witch's bidding
She told me to cut out some girl's heart, no kidding
But I have a big heart
Sent the witch a pig heart
What a story, sure to keep my glory bright
Yeah, right

[Chorus 2]
(He said it's hard times for heroes)
Once the famous huntsman
Now I'm just a dunce, man
Who can use a new crusade
(Oh, yes, it's hard times for heroes)
Now the girls fight firstwhile
Our glory days are erstwhile
Watch 'em fade
Once I punched and I kicked
Now I'm just a sidekick
It's hard times for heroes I'm afraid

[Bridge]
You think that's bad?
Once I was a warrior, a fierce fighting female
Then, I was unique and oh-so-very proud
But ever since I proved that warriors don't have to be male
Look what I am now, just one of the crowd
For crying out loud
Where are all the damsels calling out, S.O.S now
Once upon a time we all were well supplied (Ah, well)
When there are no damsels
We're the ones in distress now
What are we to do with all the stride and pride
Pent up inside

[Verse 3]
Lately, I've been wondering what my life was lacking
Then I saw a quest would send those doldrums packing
Sorry, you’re all grubbed up
I'm still feeling pumped up
Strong and stoic
Showing a heroic pluck
(Good luck)

[Chorus]
(Because it's hard times for heroes)
We'll, I won't be downhearted (Hard times)
I'm just getting started
And adventure lies in store
And so, though we feel like zeroes
Your energies contagious
Maybe you’ll re-engage us like before
So go and pursue it
'Cause, man, if you do it
Then we'd be depress-less
Not restless, and quest-less!
So we'll have a bean now
And go use that seed now
And bring good times for heroes
Back once more!

[Outro]
I'm off!
