Superman Lyrics - Kinks

Woke up this morning, started to sneeze 

Had a cigarette and a cup of tea 

I looked in the mirror, what did I see? 

A nine stone weakling with knobbly knees 

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

Had another sneeze and I blew my nose 

I looked in the mirror at my pigeon chest 

I had to put on my clothes because it made me depressed 

Surely there must be a way 

For me to change the shape I'm in 

Dissatisfied is what I am 

I want to be a better man

Superman, Superman 

Wish I could fly like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

I want to be like Superman 

Ohh! 

I want to be like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

Wish I could fly like Superman 

Woke up this morning, what did I see? 

A big black cloud hanging over me 

I switched on the radio and nearly dropped dead 

The news was so bad that I fell out of bed 

There was a gas strike, oil strike, lorry strike, a bread strike 

Got to be a Superman to survive 

Gas bills, rent bills, tax bills, phone bills 

I'm such a wreck but I'm staying alive 

Photos 

I'd really like to change the world 

And save it from the mess it's in 

I'm too weak, I'm so thin 

I'd like to fly, but I can't even swim 

Ohh! 

Superman, Superman 

Wish I could be like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

I want to fly like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

Wish I could fly like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

Wish I could hang out with Superman 

Look in the paper, what do I see? 

Robbery, violence, insanity 

Hey girl, we've got to get out of this place 

There's got to be something better than this 

I need you, but I hate to see you this way 

If I were Superman, then we'd fly away 

Ohhh! 

Superman, Superman 

I want to be like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

Wish I could fly around with Superman 

Superman, Superman 

I want to be like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

Wish I could fly like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

I want to be like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

Wish I could play like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

I want to be like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

Wish I could be like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

I want to be be like Superman 

Superman, Superman 

I want to fly like Superman
