Artist/Band: XTC
Lyrics for Song: That's Really Super, Supergirl
Lyrics for Album: Skylarking [1986]



I can't hold you down,

If you want to fly,

Can't you see I'm all broke up inside,

Well, just you use your two x ray eyes.



Hurt like kryptonite,

Put me on my knees,

Now that I've found out just what you're doing,

With your secret identities.



That's really super, supergirl,

How you saved yourself in seconds flat,

And your friends are going to say,

That's really super, supergirl,

How you're changing all the world's weather,

But you couldn't put us back together,

Now I feel like I'm tethered deep,

Inside your fortress

Of solitude,

Don't mean to be rude,

But I don't feel super,

Supergirl.



I won't call again,

Even in a jam,

Now I realise you could be on a mission,

Saving some other man.



That's really super, supergirl,

How you saved yourself in seconds flat,

And your friends are going to say,

That's really super, supergirl,

How you stopped the universe from dying,

But you're never going to stop me crying,

And I feel like you're trying hard,

To sweep me like dirt

Underneath your cape,

Well I might be an ape,

But I used to feel super,

Supergirl.



That's really super, supergirl,

How you saved yourself in seconds flat,

And your friends are going to say,

That's really super, supergirl,

How you're changing the world's weather,

But you couldn't put us back together,

Super, supergirl,

How you stopped the universe from dying,

But you're never going to stop me crying,

Super, supergirl,

I'm here in your fortress,

Of solitude,

Don't mean to be rude,

But I don't feel super...
