Someday, they'll look at me and say,
"It's that hero we've been waiting for";
Someday, they'll look at me and say,
"It's the fantastical hero from lore!"
Because more than anything, that's who I want to be;
More than anything, I wish to be set free
From the clumsiness that forever haunts me,
'Cause most of all, I want to stand proud and tall…
I wanna be a hero!
Why do you laugh at me when I fall?
Why do you say I'm dumb?
Because it hurts when the ground strikes your face
And to think that I'm stupid is wrong.
When they sing of heroes, when I hear the stories of knights that they hum,
I think," That's who I want to be",
Let my name echo through the forest.
More than anything, I wish to be set free
From the clumsiness that forever haunts me,
'Cause most of all, I want to stand proud and tall…
I wanna be a hero!
I know if I try, one day I'll be good
I know if I reach for the sky, I'll find the stars
But that's kinda hard to do
When you're only six inches tall
And the sky seems so far away.
More than anything, I wish to be set free
From the clumsiness that forever haunts me,
'Cause most of all, I want to stand proud and tall…
I wanna be a hero!
But when I speak of my dream
And tell everyone what I want to do
They just laugh in my face and say,
"None of that will ever come true".
But how do you know that it will never be?
Can't you ever just respect my hopes and what they mean to me?
More than anything, I wish to be set free
From the clumsiness that forever haunts me,
'Cause most of all, I want to stand proud and tall…
I wanna be a hero!
One day, I'm gonna prove you all wrong
One day, they'll speak my name in legend and in song
Because on that day, I'll finally break free
And I'll shine like a comet from a faraway galaxy
Because if I've said it once, I've said it twice
I don't care if you hate me; just be nice
More than anything, I wish to be set free
From the clumsiness that forever haunts me,
'Cause most of all, I want to stand proud and tall…
I wanna be a hero!
One day, I'll be Clumsy no more
They'll whisper my story from shore to shore
Because if there's anything I know is true
It's that if you believe in yourself and stay true to you
Anything is possible, anything can be real
That's who I've wished to become and that's how I really feel.
So I don't care if you laugh at me or call me names
'Cause one day, one smurfy bright day….
I'll burst out of my klutziness and all my enemies will feel the shame.
More than anything, I wish to be set free
From the clumsiness that forever haunts me,
'Cause most of all, I want to stand proud and tall…
I wanna be a hero!
