Redskins – Take No Heroes! lyrics
Somebody told me today
Let slip in a casual way
Nobody seemed to care anycase
I didn't realise, I turned away

Somebody told me today
And though my mind was miles away
Slowly the pain welled inside
As I realised he'd died

Take no heroes, only inspiration
And if you learn nothing from his life
Learn this from his death
The man may die but his dream survives
I headed out, walked the town
Staring sick & lonely
Strange faces passed
And they didn't know...

I wanted to tell them so but
Oh the rain beat hard & cold
A finer truth hit hard
Took hold

Take no heroes, only inspiration
And if you learn nothing from his life
Learn this one thing
The man may die
The man may die but his dream survives
Take no heroes
Take no heroes
Take no heroes

No way I could explain
No one to explain it to anyway
But a tearful misery's a sorry legacy
And this is not the time for sad obituaries
The rain beat hard and cold

Learn this thing
Take no heroes
Take no heroes
Take no heroes
Take no heroes

The man may die
The man may die
The man may die
But he's dream survives
Take no heroes
