Teenage Icon

Oh, look at me, so ordinary

No mystery

With no great capabilities, but

I could make out as if I had it, but you know

God, I'm so obvious and I should let it go, oh

I don't know, ohh...

I'm no teenage icon

I'm no Frankie Avalon

I'm nobody's hero

Reserved and shy, your average guy

No piercing stare

Just out of shape with messy hair, but

I always figured I was somebody and wait

And now I'm guessing that my moment must be late

'Cause I'm here, ohh...

I'm no teenage icon

I'm no Frankie Avalon

I'm nobody's hero

I'm not magnetic or mythical

I'm suburban and typical

But I got it, I've got it

I'm overrun with it all

Seductive, charming way with words

So effortless

Not leather-clad or dangerous, but

I always did it like a real rebel would

I had a photo where John Lennon may have stood

Or so I'm told, ohh...

I'm no teenage icon

I'm no Frankie Avalon

I'm nobody's hero

I'm no teenage icon

I'm no Frankie Avalon

I'm nobody's hero, ohh...
