Crash Test Dummies - Superman Song Lyrics
Tarzan wasn't a ladies' manHe'd just come along and scoop 'em up under his arm like thatQuick as a cat in the jungleClark Kent, now there was a real gentHe would not be caught sitting around in no junglescapeDumb as an ape doin' nothingRefrain:Superman never made any moneySaving the world from Solomon GrundyAnd sometimes I despair the world will never see another manLike himHey Bob, Supe had a straight jobEven though he could have smashed in any bank in the United StatesHe had the strength, but he would notFolks said his family were all deadPlanet crumbled but Superman, he forced himself to carry onForget Krypton and keep going(Refrain)Tarzan was king of the jungle and lord over all the apesBut he could hardly string together four words:"I Tarzan, you Jane"Sometimes when Supe was stopping crimesI'll bet that he was tempted to just quitAnd turn his back on manJoin Tarzan in the forestBut he stayed in the cityKept on changin' clothes in dirty old phonebooths'Till his work was throughHad nothing to do but go on home(Refrain)And sometimes I despair the world will never see another manLike him
