For 30 years she's been writing her name
On the chalkboard in a classroom at PS14
It's just social studies, science and math
But to every single kid in her third grade class
She's a hero
He's got a badge on a billboard in his kitchen drawer
He was just out of college when he joined the force
It's his call of duty, he's just doing his job
But to all his friends and neighbors
It sure means a lot
He's a hero
Yeah, a hero
Yeah, they're everyday angels
Here to help us when we need them most
Names and faces we may never know
Heroes
Yeah, a hero
Heroes
Maybe it's a soldier on a foreign coast
A ballet teacher or a little league coach
We've all got them, they ain't hard to see
They're the first ones to get there and the last to leave
Heroes
Yeah, heroes
Yeah, they're everyday angels
Here to help us when we need them most
Names and faces we may never know
Heroes
Yeah, heroes
Heroes
, yeah, they run through
All this craze
So we must be the first one to believe
He rose
Yeah, he rose
Every day he rose
Oh, yeah
