Harvey Danger Lyrics
"The Ballad Of The Tragic Hero (Pity And Fear)"

Remember Parocles?
He democratized the city with his mind.
A little wisdom never hurt any one,
tell that to Socrates,
telling the citizens what they needed to hear,
but still they fed him hemlock.
now the Greeks dont speak my language
i dont get the relavence
i am irreverence
i have no reverence
show me no deference
i'll do the same for you
LA LA LA LA

did you ever know you are my tragic hero
you be the pity, i'll be the fear.
and every subscriber will know what a truly great man you are.

In the conference room he said to me quote
"avoid your generations,
proclivity for irony and negativity held so commonly,
dont let me down son"

There was a car the wheels came off it
and I know that nobody ever made a profit
center your gravity, boy i'm counting on you to be my protege
HA HA HA HA
cast if off with the rest, flip your foot steps are filling up
everytime you turn around
you can see the idols and you ll be knockin' 'em down
1 2 3 4
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Did you ever know you are my tragic hero?
You be the pity, I'll be the fear
And every advertiser will know what a truly great man you truly are.
some wear their politics like angora
some take it on like a mantle
some can't hold a candle
some touch, some damn it,
but not you!
Such a tragic hero
tr-tr-tragic hero
you're my tracic hero
tr-tr-tragic hero
he's my tragic hero.
