Oh look at me so ordinary, no mystery, with no great capabilities,
But I could make out as if I had it but you dont,
God Im so obvious and I should let it go oh I dont know.
Im no teenage icon,
Im no Frankie Avalon,
Im nobodys hero.
Preserved and shy your average guy, no piercing stare, just out of shape with messy hair,
But I always figured I was somebody in wake,
And now Im guessing that my woman must be late cause I need her.
Im no teenage icon,
Im no Frankie Avalon,
Im nobodys hero.

Im not magnetic or mythical,
Im suburban and typical,
But I got it, I got Im overrun with it all.
Seductive charm a way with words so effortless not leather clad or dangerous,
But I always did it like a real rebel would,
I had a photo where John Lennon may have stood,
or so Im told.
Im no teenage icon,
Im no Frankie Avalon,
Im nobodys hero.
(, , , , , )
Im no teenage icon,
Im no Frankie Avalon,
Im nobodys hero.
Lyrics may be slightly wrong since I wrote them by ear. Great song. He is a teenage icon!
