Tony takes the mic for the final time with "Hero for an Hour". I loved this song from the moment I heard it.

Lyrics:

I was walking along at the end of the day

I was walking along when it began to rain

And by the edge of the path was a suitable tree

I decided to wait there patiently

Then a scream cut through the air

And a voice spoke much too near

"Little girl you're on your own

You're so scared and far from home."

I knew what I was meant to do

I should go to the young girl's aid

Act like a man be a hero strong and brave

I pictured myself front page news

Headline story hero for an hour

But my natural nature got the better of me

I took to my heels and I fled so fast

That only when I was miles away

Did I catch my breath and slow down

To a walk and then to rest

Front page news headline story

Front page news headline story

Well I was walking along when it came to me

That maybe I'd acted to hastily

And that the thing to do was to go on back

To be of help yes be the hero of the the hour

I retraced my steps in the gathering gloom

Till I thought I was back where I started from

I searched and looked but I couldn't find

I was very relieved if you know what I mean

And then I heard a voice behind

I was rooted to the spot

"Little man you're on your own

You're so scared and far from home."

You take me for a fool I know

To return to the lion's den

I felt lost and confused and about to be misused

I felt the time had come to do what I do best

Time to do the thing that I do better than the rest

I let my natural nature get the better of me

I took to my heels and I fled so fast

That only when I was miles away

Did I catch my breath and slow down

To a walk and then to rest

Thanks, B. C. This song, and all of "Still," accompanied many nice early-nineties occasions for me, in the southern California desert, a locale which seems to wisp its way through the sonic and visual landscape of the album. Many thanks to Mister Banks.

Yes, this is the only track off of 'Still' that Tony sung lead on. Sad to say, unfortunately.
