Ruthy is an artist, she?s got oceans in her head
   Doctor says you really shouldn?t leave her alone
   She throws her books -- all scattered cross the room
   Graham greene sprawled out beside the rolling stones
   Daddy doesn?t understand but goes on paying the bills
   Mother clears up after baby girl?s spills
   One break in communication and those clouds begin to fly
   While ruthy goes on bleeding when is she going to realize
   Only heroes live forever...
  
   Tony is a dancer he?s got to be one step ahead
   Watch him show the new moves to the girls he meets
   He bumps for the crowd at his apartment window
   Rolls his hands in perfect time with his feet
   Opens his shirt right to the waist
   Throws on sun tan oil like wallpaper paste
   Carries a copy of "the carpetbaggers" he thinks that makes him cool
   Looks you straight in the mouth as he tells you you?re just another fool
   But only heroes live forever...
  
   Me I?m an actor stickpaint on my face
   Alibis in my pocket and costumes in my case
   I use emotions I make them my tools
   For I know well that rock?n?roll is in the hands of fools
   And only heroes live forever...
