Hawkeye on Jimmy Fallon Is Serious Guys! He’s Got Powers Too!

This actually may be the most screen time Hawkeye has ever had.

Jeremy Renner appeared as Hawkeye on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and performed a hilarious parody of Ed Sheeran’s ‘Thinking Out Loud’ where he laments the fact that folks don’t know that he’s just as cool as the rest of The Avengers.

The Tonight Show’s Youtube channel posted the lyrics (they’re posted below as well) so you can read along while Hawkeye bears his soul and tells us “I’ve got powers too, they’re pretty sweet’ and evidently, he plays ‘trombone in a ska band.’ (The Mighty Mighty Hawktones – Anybody? Anybody? Fine.)

Gotta love his bow resting on a bed of rose petals on the piano.

When you’re on a team with the Hulk and Thor
And we’re all up there on the movie screen,
Will the people believe that I’m not quite as tough?
Will anyone even notice me?

But listen I’ve got powers too, they’re pretty sweet.
I promise I can do so much more than just archery.

I’m serious guys.
I’ve got a collection of scarves and berets.
I play trombone in a ska band.
I once got to second base on my Tinder date.
And my cat has got its own Instagram.

I tell you now
I kick ass at Mario Kart.
This year I played an extra in Paul Blart.
I can open a pickle jar.
I’m friggin’ Hawkeye.
Maybe I’m as super as they are.

So maybe I still haven’t lost my virginity.
But when I bowl I always score at least 70, after six beers

Yes I know ’bout Captain America’s strength.
Hulk becomes a towering man.
But I got seventh place in my fantasy league.
And I once butt-dialed Jean-Claude Van Damme.

When I go to Chipotle I get free guac.
I flirt with the cashier and she says I rock.
I own water-resistant socks.
I’m friggin’ Hawkeye.
Maybe I’m as super as they are.

Maybe I’m as super as they are.
Maybe I’m as super as they are.
