Then a scream cut through the air And a voice spoke much too near Little girl you're on your own You're so scared and far from home I knew what I was meant to do I should go to the young girl's aid Act like a man be a hero strong and brave
I pictured myself front page news Headline story hero for an hour But my natural nature got the better of me I took to my heels and I fled so fast That only when I was miles away Did I catch my breath and slow down To a walk and then to rest
