Lyrics

Well, I don't take no stuff, I'm Jumping Jack Flash
The bad guys try to do me in but I'm too smart for that
Faster than a speeding bullet, jump buildings in a single bound
Known throughout the country as the baddest, baddest man around
'Cause I'm Superman
I'm Superman
Watch out for Filthy McNasty
He'll try to cross my lines from kryptonite to TNT
He'll try to blow my mind but I fight him with my goodness
I fight him with my strength and if that don't work, my good friends
I'll hit him, hit him with the kitchen sink
Yeah
'Cause I'm Superman, yeah
I'm Superman
Oh, yeah
I'm rough, I'm tough, I'm big bad stuff, yeah
I'm rough, I'm tough, I'm big bad stuff, yeah
I'm rough, I'm tough, I'm big bad stuff, yeah
'Cause I'm the baddest, baddest, baddest man around
'Cause I'm Super
Yeah, I'm Superman
(He's Superman)
(He's Superman)
(He's Superman)
(He's Superman)
