Heroes in Tennis Shoes
(Words and music by Kirk McLeod, arranged by Seven Nations)
Heroes in tennis shoes
Not everyone can play that game
But isn't it us who lose?
When all we see on front page news
I think it's fair to say
The rules have changed and I
Think that it's time to say
We've played this game too long.
It doesn't surprise me
We're the Johnny Come Lately's
And we're taking it lightly
Not likely
It doesn't matter now
Because we're all alone somehow
And we're taking it lightly
Heroes in tennis shoes
Oh how I wished I played that game
Dealing with high school blues
We never thought that we could lose
