The Vaccines
Teenage Icon
[Verse 1]
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, ooh

[Chorus]
I'm no teenage icon
I'm no Frankie Avalon
I'm nobody's hero

[Verse 2]
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, ooh

[Chorus]
I'm no teenage icon
I'm no Frankie Avalon
I'm nobody's hero

[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
I'm not magnetic or mythical
I'm suburban and typical
But I got it, I got it
I'm overrun with it all

[Verse 3]
Seductive charm, a way with words
So effortless not leather clad or dangerous, but
I always did it like a real rebel would
I have a photo where John Lennon may have stood
Or so I'm told, ooh

[Chorus]
I'm no teenage icon
I'm no Frankie Avalon
I'm nobody's hero

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
I'm no teenage icon
I'm no Frankie Avalon
I'm nobody's hero
