lyrics

SUPERMAN

They all try and tell me how I oughta live.
My ways are my own and I won't forgive.
Since I was a boy I've been out on my own.
Now I think it's time I try and find a home.

It's time I pack my bags
and leave all this behind.
They think they know who I am.

So don't you try and tell me,
And say that I don't have a clue.
Because I'm me and only I know who I am.
Where I put my feet is where I stand.
I'm a superman.

When you open up your mouth you better say
What's on your mind cause I ain't got time to play.
The words you say to me, you better try 'em on yourself.
I think your true feelings are home up on the shelf.

It's time I pack my bags
and leave all this behind.
On my two feet where I stand.

So don't you try and tell me,
And say that I don't have a clue.
Because I'm me and only I know who I am.
Where I put my feet is where I stand.
I'm a superman.

Now I'm on my own I remember all you gave.
Memories I'll treasure and I'll always save.
Maybe we could have been more honest with our selves.
You were only trying to save me from the fires of hell.

It's time I pack my bags
and leave all this behind.
On my two feet where I stand.

So don't you try and tell me,
And say that I don't have a clue.
Because I'm me and only I know who I am.
Where I put my feet is where I stand.

I'll hit the ground with both feet runnin'.
The dust I leave you won't see through.
There's a highway that's been calling me.
So don't you tell me what to do.

So don't you try and tell me,
And say that I don't have a clue.
Because I'm me and only I know who I am.
Where I put my feet is where I stand.
I'm a superman.
