Superman Lover Lyrics

[Intro]
Is it a bird? Is it a plane?
What did y'all discover?
Is it a bird? Is it a plane?
It's the superman lover

[Verse 1]
I'm stronger than a locomotive, yeah
That old saying is true
But I can't understand sometimes, baby
Why I'm so weak for you
Listen
I can leap tall buildings in a single bound
When it come to getting over you, baby
Well, I can't get off the ground

[Chorus]
But they call me the Superman lover, yeah
Say they call me the Superman lover, yeah
But something's wrong, something's wrong with me this evening
Something's wrong, yeah, yes, it is

[Verse 2]
Faster than a speeding bullet
I've out-flown a few, yes, I have
But I must be flying awful slow sometimes, baby
I can't keep up with you
I got X-ray vision
And I can see, see through steel, too, baby
I know there's something wrong with me
'Cause I can't see through you
[Chorus]
But they call me the Superman lover, yeah
Call me that Superman lover, yeah
But something's wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong
There's something wrong with me, you see, yes, it is

[Bridge]
Look, look up in the sky
Come on look, look, look
And you'll see me flying by
Why don't you just look, look
And if you do, come on and look, look
I'm flying straight to you

[Chorus]
They call me the Superman lover
Say they call me the Superman lover, yeah
But something's wrong, something is wrong with me this evening
It's something wrong with me, yes, it is, ow

[Bridge]
Right on with the right on here

[Instrumental break]

[Bridge]
Look, look up in the sky
Come on just look, look
And you'll see me flying by
Why don't you just look, look
And if you do, come on and look, look
I'm flying straight to you
[Chorus]
They call me the Superman lover, yeah
Say they call me the Superman lover, yeah
But something's wrong, there's something wrong with me this evening
There's something wrong, yes, it is, baby, ow

[Outro]
Is it a bird? Is it a plane?
What did you discover?
Is it a bird? Is it a plane?
Uh-uh, it's the superman lover
