Story Behind The Song
No backstory except I will sometimes have a curl in my hair that sometimes reminded me of superman. I'm always looking for a story to write about. Why not a superman curl?
Song Description
On the surface of the song, superman is questioning the motive behind his relationship with his girlfriend. Deeper the song can be about anyone in the same frame of mind. Suspicion, fear. In the end it works out. The other party has to hammer home their love convincingly.

Lyrics
Superman Curl
Words and Music by John Masarone
She's in love with my superman curl and I know this isn't right
She's in love with my superman curl and I feel this while in flight
Way up here I can see the city lights
Way down there got a feeling that I fight
Pros and cons are that I love her
When I'm with her I am home
Still I don't know if our planets are aligned
Does she love me for who I am?
(Chorus)
And I don't care who is friend or foe
'cause where I stand is all I need to know
Pros and cons are that I love her
When I'm with her I am home
In a flash I have the strength to stop a train
But deep inside I am weak and strained
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
She already told me that
She really loves me
How can I deny
the power of those eyes
seeing past a super guy.
I'm in love with my superman girl...
She's in love with my superman curl. That's OK and I'm alright
She's in love with my superman curl but I think she is out of sight!
I'm in love with my superman girl and and I know that this is right
I'm in love with my superman girl and I feel this while in flight
