Where have all the humans gone
And where are all the gods?
Where's the Fumbbl Hercules
To fight the rising odds?
Isn't there a white knight to fight the mutant breed?
Late at night the claws are unsheathed
And I dream of what we need

[Chorus]

We need a human
I'm holding out for a human ‘til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be up for the fight
We need a human
I'm holding out for a human 'til the morning light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life

Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere just beyond my screen
There's someone rolling a human team
Will they be the answer or just be more fresh meat?
It's gonna take a superman to have the mutants beat

[Chorus]

Straight from Nuffle in the heavens above
Out there a coach with a human team
I could swear there's a hero coming
Prophecy!

Though the sweltering heat and the rain
Armour covered in mud
I foresee his approach
And the fields of mutant blood

[Chorus]

We need a human. I'm holding out for a human 'til the end of the night
