Jesse Hackett - Heroes & Villains lyrics

[Verse 1] Tongues on fire, speak up ‘cause the prophets seem to have gone to sleep Make a war on terror? Terror is taking its war out on me Oh, why you gonna go and put the fuel into the middle of the fire? It's ablaze, and the temperature is slowly getting higher [Chorus 1] We can talk about the heroes and the villains Here until the day is almost over We can hear about the heroes and the villains Here until the day is almost over [Verse 2] Pins and needles shooting up and down all over me Feels like true conviction, still, it's so hard to know what to believe It's a game of smoke and mirrors all around me (There's a mountain here by me) Do you know the heroes and the villains in this town? Do you, do you? (There's a mountain here by me) [Chorus 2] We can talk about the heroes and the villains Talk until the day is nearly over We can hear about the heroes and the villains Talk until the day is almost over We can talk about, talk about, talk about But the day is almost over [Chorus 3] We can talk about the heroes and the villains Talk until the day is nearly over We can hear about the heroes and the villains Here until the day is almost over We can hear about them, we can talk about them
