Whatever Happened To the Heroes?

Who Glorified The Movie Scene.

The Bogart’s, the Gable’s, The Cagney’s, The Fairbanks’

Who plays Across The Silver Screen.

 

Where Are The Dudes Who Saved The Damsels In Distress?

The Team Men, The Pirates, The Captains, The Cowboys

Who Braved the Fray, They save The Day.

 

Back When A Guy Had Pizzazz like Basil Rathbone,

Or The Swashbuckling charm of Errol Flynn.

All Gone Are the Guys, We Used To Play I Spy With,

Now Who’s A Guy Supposed To Identify with?

Where Have All The Movie Heroes Gone?

 

You Mean Like Cagney,

“You Dirty Rat, You Dirty Rat”.

Bogart,

“All You Gotta Do Is Puck Up Your Lips And Blow Sweetheart”.

Bojangles,

"Everything's copacetic".

Edward G Robinson,

“I’m The Big Shot Around Her, You Understand, It’s Me So say So”.

John Wayne,

“When I Say Kill A Brick I Mean Kill A Brick!”

And Rod Chester,

“Mr Billy, I’m calling You Mr Billy.

I’d Walk a Million Miles For One Of You Smiles, Mr Billy!”

 

Now We Never Analyzed Or Criticized Them,

Every Saturday Afternoon, We Just Idolized Them.

 Where Have All The Movie Heroes Gone?

 

I Mean Look At Who You Got Nowadays?

Superman’s A Cartoon and Kermit’s A Frog,

ET’s An Alien and Benji’s A Dog,

Oh Where? Where Did They Go?

Where’s W C Fields, Now That We Need Him So?

Where Have All The Movie Heroes Gone?

Oh, Bring them Dudes Back One More Time. Yeah!
