LYRICS
[Verse 1]
I don't know what's happening to me.
I'm getting all the blame for things I didn't do...
Can anybody tell me just what I did wrong!
I'm all alone and I'm so confused...

I don't know what everyone wants me to be...
I only know just how to be me!
Once I was the ape of the hour!
They think i'm a coward!
An absolute zero!
I'm noboby's hero...

An absolute zero...
I'm nobody's hero...

[Verse 2]
I don't know what everyone wants me to be...
I only know just how to be me!
Once I was the ape of the hour!
They think i'm a coward!
An absolute zero!
I'm noboby's hero...

An absolute zero...

[Verse 3]
I don't know what's happening to me.
I'm getting all the blame for things I didn't do...
Can anybody tell me just what I did wrong!
I'm all alone and I'm so confused...

I don't know what everyone wants me to be...
I only know just how to be me!
Once I was the ape of the hour!
They think i'm a coward!
An absolute zero!
I'm noboby's hero...

An aboslute zero...

[Final Verse]*
I'm noboby's hero...*

An absolute zero...
I'm nobody's hero...

I'm nobody's hero...
