Lyrics
Superman
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You don't know what it's been like
Meeting someone like you
You don't know what it's been like
Meeting someone like you
You look like Jesus on an aeroplane
Ya head's against the window pane
You got opinions, but you ain't got news
You got good laughs, but when it suits you
You turn it on like a leaking tap
Dripping, dropping people drop of a hat
You gotta mouth, but you ain't got guts
That drunken mouth you should keep it shut
You don't know what it's been like
Meeting someone like you
You don't know what it's been like
Meeting someone like you
Superman on an aeroplane
Sitting next to Lois Lane
You got that woman, but you want her gone
So you can sleep with a teenage blonde
You wear a mask, wear an armoured suit
Can't get to you with the gun I shoot
Ya play your cards close to your chest
Because ya poker face is a dreary mess
You don't know what it's been like
Meeting someone like you
You don't know what it's been like
Meeting someone like you
You don't know what it's been like
Meeting someone like you
You don't know what it's been like
Meeting someone like you
Meeting someone like you
Meeting someone like you
Meeting someone like you
Meeting someone like you
Meeting someone like you
Meeting someone like
Superman on an aeroplane
Sitting next to Lois Lane
You got that woman, but you want her gone
So you can fuck a teenage blonde
You turn it on like a leaking tap
Dripping, dropping people drop of a hat
You gotta mouth, but you ain't got guts
That drunken mouth you should keep it shut
