If I were Superman
And I could fly to heaven
And see all that was beautiful
I would never want to come home

To another disaster or some new catastrophe
No the world doesnt need another burnt out superhero
To be its galactic refugee
No I dont want to be Superman
He wants to be me.

If I were Superman
And I could turn back the hands of time
Go back and see if Jesus really did release us
Thats the question on my mind

But If I was the only one to know the truth
Could I get any person to believe
No secondhand information
Is going to make that transformation
And I dont want that responsibility
No I dont want to be Superman
He wants to be me

Well I might be made of steel
But the pain is all too real
And all the problems you cant see
Everyone seems to dump them
Seems to dump them on me

So no more disasters no more catastrophes
No the world doesnt need another fed up superhero
To be its galactic referee
No I dont want to be Superman
I dont want to be some other man
No I dont want to be Superman
He wants to be me.
