Lyrics

he says she's his superhero, he says she's too good for him,
if she's a 10, then he's a zero, that's how it's always been..
now I have known both sides of longing,
I've been the carrot and the stick,
I've loved well, but I've done wrong and acted like a prick,
I'm comin' back to earth where the real people live,
I'm gonna base my worth on the things that I give,
I'll never be your superhero, that's no way to live..
with all the phone booths disappearing,
now Captain Marvel's hard of hearing,

we're turning into something smaller, this could be your finest hour..
and when you fall, it's only human to turn your eyes up to the sky
for someone who'll come and save you, I'm sorry I can't..
fly, I'm comin' back to earth where the real people live,
I'm gonna base my worth on the things that I give,
I'll never be your superhero, that's no way to live
I'm comin' back to earth, I'm comin' back to earth,
I'll never be your superhero, that's no way to live...
