Heroes and Villains Lyrics

[Verse 1: Brian Wilson]
I've been in this town so long that back in the city
I've been taken for lost and gone
And unknown for a long long time
Fell in love years ago with an innocent girl
From the Spanish and Indian home
Of the heroes and villains

[Verse 2: Brian Wilson]
Once at night, cotillion squared the fight
And she was right in the rain of the bullets
That eventually brought her down
But she's still dancing in the night
Unafraid of what a dude'll do
In a town full of heroes and villains

[Chorus: The Beach Boys]
Heroes and villains
Just see what you've done
Heroes and villains
Just see what you've done

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3: Brian Wilson]
Stand or fall, I know there
Shall be peace in the valley
And it's all an affair of my life
With the heroes and villains

[Acapella Bridge 1]

[Bridge 2: Brian Wilson]
My children were raised
You know they suddenly rise
They started slow long ago
Head to toe, healthy, wealthy, and wise

[Bridge 3: Brian Wilson]
I've been in this town so long
So long to the city
I'm fit with the stuff
To ride in the rough
And sunny down snuff, I'm alright
By the heroes and

[Chorus/Outro: The Beach Boys]
Heroes and villains
Just see what you've done
Heroes and villains
Just see what you've done
