	Story Behind the Song What *is* this song saying, precisely? At the risk of sounding like an evasive sumbitch, the question is the answer. We don't often examine ourselves, our lives, our motives; most people are content to work with whatever rationaliziton gets them through the night. Lyrics The man who didn't save the world wasn't very handsome, wasn't very smart He didn't honk his horn and scream at other drivers He didn't drink wine and point his nose at art And he knows he's nothing special And he knows he's not a man of unusual grace But the man who didn't save the world didn't hurt it in the first place The man who didn't save the world sold his television years ago Tired of comedies that didn't make him laugh and reporters telling him things they didn't know And he knows he's nothing special And he knows he's not a man of unusual grace But the man who didn't save the world didn't hurt it in the first place The man who didn't save the world was married once, but his wife decided to walk And his knee gets sore when the weather gets cold and he cries at night when he listens to Bach And he knows he's nothing special And he knows he's not a man of unusual grace But the man who didn't save the world didn't hurt it in the first place And the men who save the world fly through the air in colored tights Saying super-hero words Fighting super-villain fights And people want to believe in them because no one wants to live without an enemy And the only one who wasn't trying to blame someone was the man who didn't save the world
