When and why did they lie
Under the same roof
Neither knows what to say
Made his plans in his life
Not according to his wife
Tried so hard to explain to her
So lonely

I'm a hero underground, another year another pound
Everything is just the same
Nothing ventured nothing gained
All you hear is the sound of the hero underground

This is life black and white
Under a grey sky
Waiting for his moment to come
When he dreams the colours bleed
Red, Gold and Green
Tried so hard to remain and sleep
So lonely

I'm the hero underground
Another year another pound
Everything is just the same
Nothing ventured nothing gained
All you hear is the sound of the hero underground
When and why did they lie
Under the same roof
Neither knows what to say
Made his plans in his life
Not according to his wife
Tried so hard to explain to her
So lonely

I'm the hero underground
Another year another pound
Everything is just the same
Nothing ventured nothing gained
All you hear is the sound of the hero underground
So lonely

He's the hero underground
Another year another pound
Everything is just the same
Nothing ventured nothing gained
All you hear is the sound of the hero underground

When and why did they lie
Under the same roof
Neither knows what to say
