(Wish I Could Fly Like) Superman

Woke up this morning, started to sneeze I had a cigarette and a cup of tea I looked in the mirror what did I see? A nine stone weakling with knobbly knees I did my knees bend, press ups, touch my toes Had another sneeze and I blew my nose I looked in the mirror at my pigeon chest I had to put on my clothes because it made me depressed Surely there must be a way For me to change the shape I'm in Dissatisfied is what I am I want to be a better man Superman, Superman Wish I could fly like Superman Superman, Superman I want to be like Superman I want to be like Superman Superman Superman Wish I could fly like Superman Woke up this morning, what did I see? A big black cloud hanging over me I switched on the radio and nearly dropped dead The news was so bad that I fell out of bed There was a gas strike, oil strike, lorry strike, bread strike Got to be a Superman to survive Gas bills, rent bills, tax bills, phone bills I'm such a wreck but I'm staying alive I'd really like to change the world Save it from the mess it's in I'm too weak, I'm so thin I'd like to fly but I can't even swim Superman, Superman Wish I could be like Superman Superman, Superman I want to fly like Superman Superman, Superman I wish I could fly like Superman Superman, Superman Wish I could be like Superman Look in the paper, what do I see?
