Lyrics
V1
Got my force field up
No one can touch me
I'm a masked crusader
No one will know me
I'm gonna fly right in
And take out the bad guys
Cuz I got magic power
I'm invincible and full of fire
Chorus
I'm a girl
I'm a super hero girl
Got my mask and cape on
I'm ready to take on
This super villain world
Cuz' I'm a super hero girl
I'm a super hero girl
Super hero!
V2
Got nerves of steel
No one can shake me
I'm as tough as diamonds
No one can break me
Walls can't stop me
I can see right through them
With my X-ray eyes
I'm battle ready and on the rise!
Chorus
I'm a girl
I'm a super hero girl
Got my mask and cape on
I'm ready to take on
This super villain world
Cuz' I'm a super hero girl
I'm a super hero girl
Super hero!

Wham! Bang! Pow!
Chorus
I'm a girl

Got my mask and cape on
I'm ready to take on
