1.Comic Book Heroes
There's times when real people let me down,
When the temperature falls to zero
I cuddle by the fire with a good book, and
For a while i am a superhero
You really need to be a superhero
'cause many times people will hurt
You and try to mess you 'round
And anyway, my comic book heroes won't
Let me down
Comic book heroes!
2.I'm Your Superman
Na na na na na. . .
I'm your superman
Oh yes i am!
I may not be as fast as a shot from a gun
And stoppin' locomotives ain't my idea of fun
And i don't have the magic to fly through the air
I can feel it when you are there
And when you're near me i'm like someone new
I even feel real bulletproof too
Na na na na na. . .
I'm your superman
Oh yes i am!
I am not super strong i have no super sight
I'm not afraid of being in kryptonite
And i don't have the magic to fly through the air
I can feel it when you are there
And when you're near me i'm like someone new
I even feel real bulletproof too
Na na na na na. . .
I'm your superman
Oh yes i am!
3.Weep No More
You left the room, without a sound
And as you both walked out, the people still
Were dancing 'round
And when you touched, did it feel so bad
You didn't pull away, but now you wish you had
My baby's sad
Weep no more, i'm here beside you, even though
You let me down
Weep no more, let my love guide you, shelter
You from all around
Na na na na
Na na na naaaaaah, na
Were you wrong？ did you go too far？ sitting with
Him in the back seat of the car
Though you were young, i guess he thought you knew
Now it's just a little while before the baby's due
My baby blue
Weep no more, i'm here beside you, even though
You let me down
Weep no more, let my love guide you, shelter
You from all around
Na na na na
Na na na naaaaaah, na
4.Why Are You Waiting
What can i do i'm at the door
I've tried turning back there's no point in that now
What should i say, what should i do
Should i fix my hair oh why am i scared now
Facing the world is so hard do you know what i mean
People are so often hard and far too ready to say...hey...ohhh
Why are you waiting？
Why are you waiting？
Why are you waiting？
What if i fail (you won't fail)
Why are you waiting？
What if i fail (you won't fail, you won't fail)
Look at me stand outside the door
Like a frightened child with a nervous smile see
What should i do, what should i say
Should i speak at all
I am much too small now
Facing the world is so hard do you know what i mean
People are so often hard and far too ready to say...hey...ohhh
Why are you waiting？
Why are you waiting？
Why are you waiting？
What if i fail (you won't fail)
Why are you waiting？
What if i fail (you won't fail)
Why are you waiting？
What if i fail (you won't fail, you won't fail, you won't fail)
5.Believe In Me
They'll be a time when everyone is left alone,
And i'll have mine
There is no doubt when everyone has worn me out and gone
When everybody's had their fill, she'll be waiting,
She's waiting still
And though she doesn't know i know,
I know she wouldn't mind
Cause having someone believe in me, is all i need to know
And standing all alone, is not the way i want to go
And if i get to be a star, or maybe no where near that far
I know that either way it doesn't matter much to her
And if i'm on my dying bed and suddenly my life is bled away
from me,
I know she'll shed a tear because she cares
Cause having someone believe in me, is all i need to know
And standing all alone, is not the way i want to go
And if i get to be a star, or maybe no where near that far
I know that either way it doesn't matter much to her
And if i'm on my dying bed and suddenly my life is bled away
from me,
I know she'll shed a tear because she cares
Cause having someone believe in me, is all i need to know
And standing all alone, is not the way i want to go
6.Misty Water Woman
I was driving 'round, as the sun went down
When i came upon a lake, the sign said 'misty water'
And standing there, with wet and tangled hair was a girl
She said her name was 'bo', she was a farmer's daughter
I said get in, i'll take you home, you must be cold
Misty water woman
You never get to her
Misty water woman
You never get to touch her
And feel her near
It began to storm, and our talk grew warm
Till i stopped the car outside a cold and lonely place
I said we're here
But she had disappeared
And on the seat was a pool of tears
And a handkerchief of lace
I did not see her leave
I was amazed
Misty water woman
You never get to her
Misty water woman
You never get to touch her
And feel her warm
I sped into the house,
It took her father and her mother to straighten me out
What was it all about
Please let me know
She looked sad, and he looked mad
And he said, yes you're right, once we had a daughter
Her name was bo, but that was long ago
Years have gone since she drowned at 'misty water'
And the way he took it, took me by surprise
Misty water woman
You never get to her
Misty apparition
You never get to touch her
And feel her near
7.The Liar
Back from the crowd stood i
As you moved up to the stage
Catching the singer's eye
Looking older than your age
Then i couldn't help thinking and remember when
You hated rock and roll
I'm the loser
You're the liar, liar
Rock and roller
You're the liar, liar
Star struck strummer
You're the liar, liar, ohhhh
Taking my heart each day
When you say you do no harm
How can i feel that way
With those strange men on your arm
Cause i do remember when your head was clear
And you didn't read those looks
I'm the loser
You're the liar, liar
Rock and roller
You're the liar, liar
Star struck strummer
You're the liar, liar, ohhhh
And i couldn't help seeing when your friends arrived
They weren't sniffing from a cold
I'm the loser
Liar, liar, liar, liar
Liar, liar, liar, liar
Liar, liar, liar, liar
Liar, liar, liar, liar
And i recall that overhearing someone say
You're a working girl as well
I'm the loser again
You're the liar, liar
Rock and roller
You're the liar, liar
Star struck strummer
You're the liar, liar, ohhhh
You're the liar, liar, liar
You're the liar, liar, liar
You're the liar, liar, liar
You're the liar
8.The Photograph
Hands old and poor, her back bent and sore,
She lifts from the drawer, the photograph
Though tattered and torn, through years it has worn,
But still bears the form of the man she knew
Her eyes are weak, spilling tears on her cheek
Her lips start to speak to the photograph
She tells him with pride, she still loves him inside
Though years ago died, la da da da
La, la da, la da, la da da, la da, la da da,
La la la da da,
La, la da, la da, la da da, la da, la da da,
La la la da da
And all of the people she knew, who she knows no more
Who don't know the score say,
'we wonder why, she never married, such a
Pretty girl she was, such a lovely face she had,
Such a pretty thing she was', once
She turns to her right, to put out the light,
And wishes goodnight to the photograph
Her love, though it's strong and lasted this long,
And goes on and on, she's still in love
La, la da, la da, la da da, la da, la da da,
La la la da da,
La, la da, la da, la da da, la da, la da da,
La la la da da
9.Bad Boy
I woke up from the drink i had
The room was dark and suddenly began to swirl
I should of heeded mother's words
She said she'd heard it said you were a naughty girl
But what does a mother know
That we really need to know
And what would she say if she knew
Na na na na you're just a bad boy
Who, who, who
Na na na na they'll drive you mad boy
Who, who, who
But mother, what a way to go
I looked out as the sun came up
I shook my head and said i really should be gone
I grabbed my shoes and daily news
And walked out in the heat beneath the summer sun
But father was there outside with no place to run and hide
He looked most upset as he said 'where've you been？'
Na na na na you're just a bad boy
Who, who, who
Na na na na they'll drive you mad boy
Who, who, who
But mother, what a way to go
But what if she'd walked in and caught us
Do you think she'd have been shocked
The way that she talked you'd think i was a daughter
Anyway the door was locked
I know that mother disagrees
But i would really like to see you again
And if you want to see me too
Then meet me in the bushes at the river bend
And no one will find us out
'cause no one will be about
But still i can hear them all say
Na na na na you're just a bad boy
Who, who, who
Na na na na they'll drive you mad boy
Who, who, who
But mother, what a way to go
10.Born Out Of Time
'come on out please let me stay here, i won't make any trouble
What's the idea, you can't stay in here
Come out i tell you
But your dog will bite me
Oh nonsense, major doesn't bite girls
Come on, hurry up, it happens to be raining out here'
I've seen all your movies, at least 3 or 4 times
And have on my wall, a large picture of you
But you were that pretty young star, so long ago
I'm born out of time with ya
What can i do
Maybe, i'm silly to think we'd have made it
But what i'd had given to at least had a try
Oh take me back with you 1939
'cause black and white movies are making me cry
And born out of time, we slipped hopelessly by
Sophia loren, bridgett bardo, jean harlowe,
Marilyn monroe and marlene deitrich
You're better, you're better than any i'm seeing
Yes, you were a real beauty queen
Oh listen people, has it happened to you yet
The feeling that someone was born out of time
Will you love someone, physically much too young for you
Either way, it's a shame, time was so cruel
But it's nice that that, generally, isn't the rule
Sophia loren, bridgett bardo, jean harlowe,
Marilyn monroe and marlene deitrich
You're better, you're better than any i'm seeing
Yes, you were a real beauty queen
And clark gable's who i should have been
11.Do You Love Your Children
Father do you love your children
I heard you do
But father will you help your children
We need you to
It could be worse i know it's true
But only if we plan
La la la lady mary... it's time to show your hand
La la la lady mary... and make a few demands
Children do you hope that someone
Is watching you
But do you feel the need for someone
I know i do
I think about it constantly
We really aren't that wise
La la la lady mary... open up our eyes
La la la lady mary... and make us realize
First i have a question
('do you love us')
I would like to know
('do you love us')
Do you love your children
('do you love us')
Do you love your children
('do you love us')
Yes we really need to know
('do you love us')
I think the time has come for you to show
('do you love us')
('do you love us') ('do you love us')
('do you love us')('do you love us')
('do you love us') ('do you love us')
('do you love us')
Mother, do you love your children
I know you do
But mother do you know your children
Will poison you
The answer does not seem too clear
We look so hard ourselves
La la la lady mary... put your books back on the shelf
La la la lady mary... and save us from ourselves
First i have a question
('do you love us')
I would like to know
('do you love us')
Do you love your children
('do you love us')
Do you love your children
('do you love us')
Yes we really need to know
('do you love us')
I think the time has come for you to show
('do you love us')
('do you love us') ('do you love us')
('do you love us')('do you love us')
('do you love us') ('do you love us')
('do you love us')
