(Wish I Could Fly Like) Superman

I had to put on my clothes because it made me depressed
I want to be like superman
A big black cloud hanging over me
I�d really like to change the world
Superman, superman, wish I could fly like superman
Dissatisfied, is what I am
Hey girl, we�ve got to get out of this place
Superman, superman, wish I could fly like superman
Had another sneeze and I blew my nose
Got to be a superman to survive
Superman, superman, want to be like superman
And if I were superman then we�d fly away
There was a gas strike, oil strike, lorry strike, bread strike
And save it from the mess it�s in
Woke up this morning, what did I see
I�m too weak, I�m so thin
I switched on the radio and nearly dropped dead
Superman, superman, wish I could fly like superman
Superman, superman, wish I could fly like superman

I did my knees, bend press ups, touch my toes

For me to change the shape I�m in
A nine stone weakling with knobbly knees
Gas bills, rent bills, tax bills, phone bills
The news was so bad that I fell out of bed
Surely there must be a way

I�d like to fly but I can�t even swim
Superman, superman, I want to fly like superman

I need you but I hate to see you this way
There�s got to be something better than this
Want to be a better man
Superman, superman, I want to be like superman

I looked in the mirror, what did I see
I looked in the mirror, at my pigeon chest
I�m such a wreck but I�m staying alive
