You want it bad, a superman
to take up the task at hand and bleed for you
You smoking gun, you riot of one,
put down the muscle and come up a fighter

Lions rage
they rattle their cage, as they'll do
Like the fools parading, they're waiting in vain
for superman, for superman, for superman

The killers they come but you ride on
not looking back
but clouds of woe ride your head
from smoking their jive

Open wide,
go packing a sidearm of truth
'cause the birds of the air ain't seen hide nor hair
of superman, of superman, of superman

It ain't a crime to be hated
or in the clouds of mourning
Broken babies see their diamonds
in your pocket there, in the pure land,
when you go to hell, they will shine as well

you are superman, you are superman, you are superman
