Lyrics House of Heroes

House of Heroes

Your Wurlitzer

I did a casting call

It came out all wrong

You got the lead role

You want the walk on

The other passers-by they don't have a clue

That when I wrote the part I wrote it for you baby

You try too hard to get it

It only takes a minute

Here and now

Its right in front of you

It doesn't matter to you you're only twenty and two

Like a canon

Locked and loaded

I hear your wurlitzer

I hear it playing a tune

Its so beautiful

Its just like you

Its in a minor key but has a major resolve

I hope we can

I think we can after all baby

You try too hard to get it

It only takes a minute

Here and now

Its right in front of you

It doesn't matter to you you're only twenty and two

Like a canon

Locked and loaded

The awkward

The floating

The silence and the choking

The mystery

Urgency

The passion and the irony

You try too hard to get it

It only takes a minute

Here and now

Its right in front of you

It doesn't matter to you you're only twenty and two

Like a canon

Locked and loaded
