Where would we be without our local heroes
That's where i shop when my wallet isn't zero
So many titles provided i get excited at the thought of them

Bought all them now I'm reading them on my ottoman

$#&@ going digital subliminal subversion

The version I'm preferrin definitely dated yet current
I'm evading deterrent with my impertinent purchase
Paper's perfectly worthless but hard drives makin me nervous


I like the texture and the scent I like the crimes they prevent
I like the times i recline find my dime is well spent

Here's my checklist it is reckless gives my helmet a dent
Why don't you inspect it it's worth every cent


Mason's like a mutant a Cibopath like a Tony Chu
He eats people learns their memories a zombie with a clue
Found his way into the FDA to procure a little proof

Lost someone and tracked the truth, he thinks the flu's a ruse

These are the comics that I choose my pull list is endless

You want evidence how bout nemesis or the fact I'm friendless
Defend that I'm trendless pick what's important to me
If you don't have in on the shelves will you order it please?

I could take a stand clenchin fists like Danny Rand
Or of course I could be Yorick in Panty Land Japan
@@#! psylocke so hard her sword would fall right out of her hand

Get Mrs. Incredible to bend her will and fill her spandex with jam

I wish I was Steve Rodgers I would take out all these dodgers

Even though I'd be much older if never frozen that's obvious
Prove that I'm a dangerous dude make a skull swallow the cube
I'd clean the room with Doctor Doom until his hollow and hewn


I could control what I'd read and I'd predict every page
Nick Fury in a fire fight with an angry Agent Graves

There'd be no need for shady tactics industry wouldn't be average
And there'd be no crossover craziness that consumes all my cabbage


This is really who I am so don't call me an actor
Wish i was Multiple Man from Marvel's X-Factor
I wish there was more of to pour over these ovaries

Can't stop it compulsive comic hoarding loading over me

I would go to digital if I didn't feel like treason
I would torrent all my books but I don't and here's the reason

I like to hear the bell ring when I when into the shop
I like to see some guys I know who'd know me on the spot


I like having a place else to go, when my room feels like a cell
I like have some friends who show me it's fun to be yourself
I like heroes that I can have and hold onto into older age

I like thinking back to simpler times inside my younger days

Where would we be without our local heroes

That's where I shop when my wallet isn't zero
So many titles provided I get excited at the thought of them
I bought all them now I'm reading them on the ottoman
