Paul Heaton - Somebody’s Superhero lyrics

Artist: Paul Heaton

album: Manchester Calling (Double Deluxe Version)


Metropolis had its quieter days
When everyone was behaving
Superman had his lonely times
When no one needed saving
You can call Captain America
Call Wonder Woman too
Call up any one of them
And sure enough, on cue
They'll fly through sky
They'll jump right out of the sea
But no one thought to call up
Good old me
And the only thing that sees me
Through these blues
Is I'm someone's superhero
Just don't know whose
'Til then, my lack of powers
You must excuse
'Cause I'm somebody's superhero
Just don't know whose

Oh, I ain't got no outfit
To change into at night
No secret power do I hold
No weapon brought to fight
Batman had his Robin
Robin Hood his Merry Men
I got simply nobody
To help me up again
One day, I'll dive right down on
Speeding train
One day, I'll find myself that
Lois Lane
And the only thing that sees me
Through these blues
Is I'm someone's superhero
Just don't know whose
'Til then, my lack of powers
You must excuse
'Cause I'm somebody's superhero
Just don't know whose
Heroes and heroines
Untouchable, they are
Pull us free from wreckage
Rescue us from burning car
But not for me, returning heroes'
Cinematic kiss
'Cause I always aim to please
But actually miss
I've no name
Check in the Daily Planet's news
I'm someone's superhero
Just don't know whose
With a fanfare played on
Paper and comb kazoo
I'm somebody's superhero
Just don't know who
Just don't know who
Just don't know who
Don't know whose
