Paper Hero

All about that guy the ladies say they want, but rarely go for.

Hey listen up my dear
Everyone wants a guy like that on paper
But when it comes down to it
That guys only a paper champion
He's balled up and tossed away for

Something you wish could change
Something that gives you the thrill of loss
Something that will never last
Something you said you'd never take
Please make up your mind

You say it's the reason you put yourself out there
To find a prince charming to be your king
One to treat you right and keep you happy
But I see you going for that poor excuse for James Dean
I see you reaching for that trashy rock 'n roll wanna be
And you fall for that crocodile smile
That's not a sparkle in his eyes honey
That's just the devil in him coming out

So make your declarations carefully
Tell us what you really want to see
Is it the fashion and fame
Is it the substance and personality
Is it the way we walk on the avenue
Or is it something less shallow than that

Listen to me out there
Open your heart to the paper hero
Don't just give in to the guy who feeds you false lines
Or the one you feel no connection at all
Don't look and fall for those devil eyes
Settle for nothing less that what you really deserve
Un-ball that paper champion and make him yours

Aww.... We girls aren't always so fickle, are we?
lol.
I tend to like intelligent guys...
But it's hard to say...
Tastes change, you know?
