Chorus:

Colossus?

Hero:

I Will!



Now all the World is waiting - Ho!

A Maiden I must save - the world is waiting

No time for hesitating



If only I were brave - for Now, is the Hour

Yes I was made the hero - Hero!

It's my call - that's my cue! All eyes on you

It's everything or nothing - Go!

Look out! He's coming through

Behold the Giant

We stand our ground defiant

THE PRINCESS SHALL BE MINE



OH YES - SHE WILL BE MINE

Hey - you up there with the b-beard!



Oh I was made of Freedom

Nobody pulls my strings

And I can equal any man

In all the grown-up things

Giant:

Wooaarrgh!

Hero:

Yes I was made of mischief

They tell me I must learn

But nothing is coincidence

Whichever way I turn



And I will do or die

For I know one thing after all

The bigger any giant comes

The harder he may fall

Princess:

My Hero!

He saved me

My hero-my-hero-my-hero-my-hero-my-hero!

Chorus:

Hail the hero

King:

At last we have a hero

Sire I'm told he is only a-a-a peasant

Chorus:

Only a peasant-acapo
