Subject: Lyr Add: SUPERMAN (Fred Wedlock)
I copied these lyrics from here (where they also have chords), and checked them against the recording at YouTube, here, and reformatted them to fit my own aesthetic taste (mainly putting the rhymes at ends of lines):


SUPERMAN
As sung by Fred Wedlock

1. I'd like to think I was Superman,
Giving all the world a hand.
Oh, what a Superman
I'd be!
I'd like to think I was invisible.
I'd be invincible.
Invinci-visible,
That's me.

CHORUS: Ah, but I'm very
Un-extraordinary,
And I'll never be any of the things I dream about
When I'm alone and lights are out.
I'm just me.

2. I'd like to be Mr Universe,
Defeating all the worst
People in the universe
For free.
I'd like to be a multimillionaire,
Giving money everywhere,
Saving a place up there
For me.

CHORUS

[Repeat verse 1 and chorus.]
