Heroes and heathens are often confused.
They hide so cleverly behind their ruse.

Heroes are brave, genuine and loyal.
Whose wonderful works should be treated royal.

Heathens are cruel, and coarse, and mean.
They've been called thief, crook, and fiend.

How can we discern the difference, friend?
Is there any way, or is this the end?

I'll tell you how to tell them apart!
A heathen uses his head, a hero: his heart!
