Oh look at me so ordinary
No mystery with no great capabilities
But I could make out as if I had it
But you know
God I'm so obvious and I should let it go
Oh I don't know
Oooh

I'm no teenage icon
I'm no Frankie Avalon
I'm nobody's hero
Oooh

Reserved and shy your average guy
No piercing stare
Just out of shape with messy hair
But I always figured I was somebody
And now I'm guessing that my moment must be late
'Cause I'm here
Oooh

I'm no teenage icon
I'm no Frankie Avalon
I'm nobody's hero
Oooh

I'm not magnetic or mythical
I'm suburban and typical
But I got it I got it I'm overun with it all

Seductive, charming way with words
So effortless not leather clad or dangerous but
I always did it like a real rebel would
I had a photo which on Lennon may have stood
So I'm told
Oooh

I'm no teenage icon
I'm no Frankie Avalon
I'm nobody's hero
Oooh
