Waiting For Superman
She’s watching the taxi driver, he pulls awayShe’s been locked up inside her apartment a hundred days
She says, “Yeah, he’s still coming, just a little bit lateHe got stuck at the laundromat washing his cape”She’s just watching the clouds roll by and they spell her name like Lois LaneAnd she smiles, oh the way she smiles
She’s talking to angels, counting the starsMaking a wish on a passing carShe’s dancing with strangers, falling apartWaiting for Superman to pick her upIn his arms, In his armsWaiting for Superman
She’s out on the corner trying to catch a glimpseNothing’s making senseShe’s been chasing an answerA sign lost in the abyss, this Metropolis
She says...Yeah, he’s still coming, just a little bit lateHe got stuck at the Five and Dime saving the day”She says...If life was a movie, then it wouldn’t end like thisLeft without a kissStill, she smiles, the way she smiles, yeah
She’s talking to angels, she’s counting the starsMaking a wish on a passing carShe’s dancing with strangers, she’s falling apartWaiting for Superman to pick her upIn his arms, In his armsShe’s waiting for Superman
To lift her up and take her anywhereShow her love and climbing through the airSave her now before it’s too late tonightOh, like a speeding lightAnd she smiles
She’s talking to angels, she’s counting the starsMaking a wish on a passing carShe’s dancing with strangers, she’s falling apartWaiting for Superman to pick her upIn his arms, In his armsShe’s waiting for Superman
To lift her up and take her anywhereShow her love and climbing through the airSave her now before it’s too late tonightShe’s waiting for Superman
