Superguy

lyrics

I tried to save the world
But I couldn’t change the world
Oh well, I guess the cashier didn’t have the coins available

I tried to fight against sin
But sometimes the bad guys win
Oh well, I guess being a hero’s not a valid career choice

I may not have a signal in the sky
But you can email me anytime
I may not have a flashing red phone by my side
But you can call me anytime
But remember i’m just… a superguy

I want the darkest evil to come
So maybe I could be the chosen one
Oh well, I guess i’m chosen to have my name called on a tannoy

I wanna be like superman
But I guess i’m just a super man
Oh well, I guess i’m more like ‘Super-common-average-Joe Man’

I may not have a signal in the sky
But you can email me anytime
I may not have a cape or a bat-shaped knife
But you can call me anytime
But remember i’m just a superguy

I can’t tell you why some girls like average guys
I can’t save you from the green Kryptonite
I can’t tell you why some chancers still succeed
I can’t fly up there and save your cat that’s stuck in a tree

I may not have a signal in the sky
But you can email me anytime
I may not wear my pants on the outside
But you can call me anytime

You may not draw your powers from a spider bite
But I might text you at anytime
You may not have a temper or purple shorts, thats fine
But I mite call you at anytime
So try to be just... a superguy... or girl
