I saw superman
Sitting with his head in his hands
I offered my help very nicely
At first he declined politely
I persisted superman
Why are you crying?
What can there be to be so sad about,
When you're so good at flying?
He said...
Oh Peggy Sue,
I don't know what to do,
I keep being played by all these different actors:
Some of them are great, and some of them are wankers,
I've been wearing the same outfit since the 30's,
Everyone else gets to change their clothes,
I still have to wear these...
Everyone thinks it's so great being Superman,
I'll tell you its a sham, I tell you its a sham,
Everyone thinks it's so great,
Everyone thinks its super duper,
I don't feel that much like a superman,
I feel more like a super loser.
I said
Superman,
Lift you head up from your hands
I must admit I really think you're looking at this all the wrong way.
I know plenty of guys who would give their right foot and probably their left foot too,
just to be you.
He said,
Oh Peggy Sue,
I get so very blue,
You see I'm in love with Lois Lane,
and she doesn't even know my real name!
And all I really want is to have the right to wear my pants underneath my tights,
Everyone thinks its so great,
being Superman,
I tell you its a sham!!
