Superman's Song (Live)

Lyrics

Tarzan wasn't a ladies' man
 He'd just come along and scoop 'em up under his arm like that
 Quick as a cat in the jungle
 But Clark Kent, now there was a real gent
 He would not be caught sittin' around in no junglescape
 Dumb as an ape doing nothing
 Superman never made any money
 For saving the world from Solomon Grundy
 And sometimes I despair the world will never see another man like him
 Hey Bob, Supe had a straight job
 Even though he could have smashed through any bank in the United States
 He had the strength, but he would not
 Folks said his family were all dead
 Planet crumbled but Superman, he forced himself to carry on
 Forget Krypton and keep going
 Superman never made any money
 For saving the world from Solomon Grundy
 And sometimes I despair the world will never see another man like him
 Tarzan was king of the jungle and lord over all the apes
 But he could hardly string together four words: "I Tarzan, you Jane"
 Sometimes when Supe was stopping crimes
 I'll bet that he was tempted to just quit and turn his back on man
 Join Tarzan in the forest
 But he stayed in the city
 Kept on changing clothes in dirty old phonebooths 'til his work was through
 And nothing to do but go on home
 Superman never made any money
 For saving the world from Solomon Grundy
 And sometimes I despair the world will never see another man like him
 And sometimes I despair the world will never see another man like him
