lyrics

I have a glow you cannot see...
a heart as big as the moon, as warm as bathwater!
We're superheroes, men!
We don't have time to be charming!
The boots of evil were made for walkin'!
We're watching the big picture, friend.
We know the score!
We're a public service, not glamour-boys!
We are a justice sandwich!

Now... who wants to be a superhero?

When I was just a little boy
I'd watch my cartoons on TV
Nothing would bring me greater joy
Than thinking of what I'd want to be
Days of innocence long-gone
Comic books have gone away
But with my head up in the clouds
I'd be the guy who saves the day

Come with me, we'll be superheroes!
Fighting crime all the time
Standing ten feet tall when you're five-foot-nine
I wanna be a superhero
Come on babe, give us a chance
Wearing underwear on the outside of our pants

Faster than a speeding bullet
More powerful than a train
I could fly high up in the air
Without the use of a plane
All my dreams would come true
You could come and do it too
If you think you can
Be the Wonder-Woman to my Superman

Come with me, we'll be superheroes!
Fighting crime all the time
Standing ten feet tall when you're five-foot-nine
I wanna be a superhero
Come on babe, give us a chance
Wearing underwear on the outside of our pants

Come with me, we'll be superheroes!
Think of all the fun that it could be
When you come out and be a superhero with me
Come with me, we'll be superheroes!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Come with me we'll be super...
Wearing underwear on the outside of our pants!

Come heroes. Our work here is done.
