I got a message from a girl in distress

She was a prisoner in an apartment address

But like a hero to the scene of the crime

I lost my way and there was so little time

Stood at a bus stop on a cold rainy day

Tire through a puddle threw some mud in my face

No bus arrived so I just crawled into town

I took my chances on the underground

Subway station wall to wall people

I couldn't squeeze onto a train

In desperation

I looked for a taxi but oh the searching was in vain

Too late the hero from ten down to zero

Too late the hero why did she say

Boy boy you're way too late

She said boy boy you're way too late

I caught a train but there was nowhere to sit

Reached for a strap I thought I heard something rip

There on the central line my pants fell apart

Train broke down and we were stuck in the dark

Subway tunnel claustrophobia best suit wrinkled and damp

Finally when I crawled up to her door

She said goodbye chump

Too late the hero from ten down to zero

Too late the hero why did she say

Boy boy you're way too late

She said boy boy you're way too late

Did I see someone in the shadow did I hear footsteps on the floor

Did I hear laughter in the background just before she slammed that door

I turned around and I headed home I was tired rejected and cold

Missed the last train left around midnight so I walked that lonesome road

Too late the hero from ten down to zero

Too late the hero why did she say

Boy boy you're way too late

She said boy boy you're way too late

Too late too late the hero way too late

Too late too late the hero way too late

Too late too late the hero way too late

Too late hey hey hey
