[offset:-100]
[00:16.45] Woke up this morning, started to sneeze
[00:20.19] I had a cigarette and a cup of tea
[00:23.77] I looked in the mirror what did I see
[00:27.77] A nine stone weakling with knobbly knees
[00:31.19] I did my knees bend press ups touch my toes
[00:35.59] I had another sneeze and I blew my nose
[00:39.41] I looked in the mirror at my pigeon chest
[00:42.95] I had to put on my clothes because it made me depressed
[00:47.30] Surely there must be a way
[00:51.12] For me to change the shape I'm in
[00:55.14] Dissatisfied is what I am
[00:59.51] I want to be a better man
[01:05.14][01:28.26][03:03.14] Superman Superman wish I could fly like Superman
[01:12.70][03:10.94] Superman Superman I want to be like Superman
[01:25.27] I want to be like Superman
[01:43.91] Woke up this morning, what did I see
[01:47.75] A big black cloud hanging over me
[01:51.26] I switched on the radio and nearly dropped dead
[01:55.37] The news was so bad that I fell out of bed
[01:58.68] There was a gas strike, oil strike, lorry strike, bread strike
[02:03.18] Got to be a Superman to survive
[02:06.94] Gas bills, rent bills, tax bills, phone bills
[02:10.80] I'm such a wreck but I'm staying alive
[02:14.93] Hey girl we've got to get out of this place
[02:19.04] There's got to be something better than this
[02:22.42] I need you, but I hate to see you this way
[02:26.17] If I were Superman then we'd fly away
[02:30.08] I'd really like to change the world
[02:33.88] And save it from the mess it's in
[02:37.92] I'm too weak, I'm so thin
[02:42.15] I'd like to fly but I can't even swim
[02:47.82][03:18.38] Superman Superman I want to fly like Superman
[02:55.30] Superman Superman wish I could fly like Superman,
