Superman's Song

Tarzan wasn't a ladies' man

He'd just come along and scoop 'em up under his arm like that

Quick as a cat in the jungle



Clark Kent, now there was a real gent

He would not be caught sitting around in no junglescape

Dumb as an ape doin' nothing



Refrain:

Superman never made any money

Saving the world from Solomon Grundy

And sometimes I despair the world will never see another man

Like him



Hey Bob, Supe had a straight job

Even though he could have smashed through any bank in the United States

He had the strength, but he would not



Folks said his family were all dead

Planet crumbled but Superman, he forced himself to carry on

Forget Krypton and keep going



(Refrain)



Tarzan was king of the jungle and lord over all the apes

But he could hardly string together four words:

"I Tarzan, you Jane"

Sometimes when Supe was stopping crimes

I'll bet that he was tempted to just quit

And turn his back on man

Join Tarzan in the forest



But he stayed in the city

Kept on changin' clothes in dirty old phonebooths

'Till his work was through

Had nothing to do but go on home



(Refrain)

And sometimes I despair the world will never see another man

Like him
