We go to the movies
And cheer for the hero
Then travel back home
Feel a bit like a zero
Where do we fit?
What do we add to the world?
We see all the problems
We don't have the answers
We look away and sidestep
Such excellent dancers
But what can we do?
The world is so out of control
No we can't fly like Superman
Can't swing in to help like Spider Man
Will never be confused with Iron Man
Doesn't mean we aren't part of the plan
People want a point on the scoreboard
Hope to see their face on the billboard
But making a difference that's the reward
Give the world a lift and then you've scored
It all begins
In the place where you're living
Little more patience
Little more forgiving
We go to the next day
Feels just like the last day
The path that we follow
Permanently burned gray
Where do we fit?
What do we add to the world?
The people around you
Are the place to begin
Try looking in their eyes
Help them go find a win
What can we do?
The change is what we can control
No we can't fly like Superman
Can't swing in to help like Spider Man
Will never be confused with Iron Man
Doesn't mean we aren't part of the plan
People want a point on the scoreboard
Hope to see their face on the billboard
But making a difference that's the reward
Give the world a lift and then you've scored
No we can't fly like Superman
Can't swing in to help like Spider Man
Will never be confused with Iron Man
Doesn't mean we aren't part of the plan
