Tarzan wasn't a ladies' man |
|
He'd just come along scoop 'em up under his arm |
|
Like that, quick as a cat in the jungle |
|
But Clark Kent, now there was a real gent |
|
He would not be caught sittin' around in no jungle scape |
|
Dumb as an ape doing nothing |
|
Superman never made any money |
|
For saving the world from Solomon Grundy |
|
And sometimes I despair the world will never see |
|
Another man like him |
|
Hey Bob, Supe had a straight job |
|
Even though he could have smashed |
|
Through any bank in the United States |
|
He had the strength, but he would not |
|
Folks said, his family were all dead |
|
Planet crumbled but Superman |
|
He forced himself to carry on |
|
Forget Krypton and keep going |
|
Superman never made any money |
|
For saving the world from Solomon Grundy |
|
And sometimes I despair the world will never see |
|
Another man like him |
|
Tarzan was King of the Jungle |
|
And Lord over all the apes |
|
But he could hardly string together four words |
|
I Tarzan, you Jane |
|
Sometimes when Supe was stopping crimes |
|
I'll bet that he was tempted |
|
To just quit and turn his back on man |
|
Join Tarzan in the forest |
|
But he stayed in the city |
|
Kept on changing clothes |
|
In dirty old phone booths, till his work was through |
|
And nothing to do but go on home |
|
Superman never made any money |
|
Saving the world from Solomon Grundy |
|
And sometimes I despair, the world will never see |
|
Another man like him |
|
And sometimes I despair the world will never see |
|
Another man like him |
