Chainsaw Hero

To the tune by Foreigner - Guitar Hero

Aching back in pain, disfigured slight bow

Glad he’d joined the picket, told his boss where to go

Now mingling with the crowd, it was a bitter scene

It was next to the mall, filled with yells and screams

One guy not to far, threw a rock his way

Hit him between the eyes, “ow” he was heard to say

Accustomed to cutting, turning trees into cords

People would buy and burn it, and kept themselves warm

Smoke filled the air, fire warming their hands, but in these throngs, don't understand

He needed work, pay was to low

The strike was his ticket, trying to get some more

So he started walking, behind all of the cops

He'd just keep on walking, someday his pay would get a raise up

And he's a chainsaw hero, with sweat in his eyes, he's a chainsaw hero

He used a chainsaw, chainsaw hero, sweat in his eyes

Chainsaw hero, cuts wood to size, morning until the night

No one even knows his name, or that he lives next door

Wood he cuts just warms their house, and unchills the floor

Cutting wood pretty fast, ignoring the back pain

And that one chainsaw, could make his life change

But he needs to keep on walking, don't want to stop

Got to keep on walking, he needs to get his pay raised up

'Cause he's chainsaw hero, with sweat in his eyes

He's a chainsaw hero, cuts wood down to size

A chainsaw hero, sweat in his eyes

With that one chainsaw, cuts wood to size

He'll stay alive, works dawn until night, Moan

He will get a raise by walking, pay raised up

Gotta Keep On Walking, he needs to get his pay raised up

And he's a chainsaw hero, got sweat in his eyes

He's a chainsaw hero, cuts wood down to size

Just one chainsaw, chainsaw hero, his back hurts and sweat in his eyes

He's just a chainsaw hero, his back hurts

Chainsaw, saw hero, saw, saw, chainsaw hero, saw, saw

He's cuts wood down to size, sweat in his eyes.
