Mister Hero
Birth Control Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can show you the way
If you pay my obligation
I tell you how to play
Tell me your dream and I realize
And when you want
We can fly into the sun
You don't know what I'm talkin'
It's not for the first time
But might be the last time
There's to you I offer my service
Because I know
We can fly into the sun
I'm Mister Hero
Tell me your dreams
Guess you'd go on me
To make you reflective
Is all I intend
But if you can manage yeah
Just give me a call
You'll find my number
Within the stars
And don't forget
We can fly into the sun
The song "Mister Hero" by German rock band Birth Control is a complex and intriguing commentary on the concept of heroism and its effect on society. The lyrics are spoken from the perspective of Mister Hero himself, who offers his services to those willing to pay his price. He claims that he can show them the way and make their dreams a reality, with the possibility of soaring into the sun.
However, as the song progresses, a darker side of Mister Hero is revealed. He warns the listener not to think he is joking and implies that their encounter may be their last. He also speaks of making the listener "reflective," suggesting that there may be a greater purpose to his services beyond just making dreams come true. The final stanza provides an eerie conclusion, with Mister Hero encouraging the listener to call him, as his number is within the stars. The implication is that he is not of this world and that his motives may be far from pure.
Overall, "Mister Hero" is a thought-provoking exploration of the idea of heroism as a double-edged sword. While heroes can provide guidance and make dreams come true, they are often complex figures with hidden motives and a dark side.
