Adrian Belew - SUPERBOY lyrics

rate me

(Belew/Fetters/Nyswonger)

I see you as a real live Superboy

wide-eyed at a world brand new

can't wait to get your hands in the machinery

make me think there's nothing you won't do

Welcome here, dear fearless Superboy

never bother with the training wheel

off the sidewalk to the middle of the street

look ma, no hands, no feet

You're on a roll, you can't relax

a solid gold prize in your crackerjacks

Fly little Superboy

I know you are a bonafide Superboy

looking through me with those x-ray eyes

no problem at the bottom of the ocean

blasting off for the open skies

Welcome here, dear fearless Superboy

we hope it was a pleasant flight

touching base on the blue-green face

another trip at the speed of light

Be patient son, we know you're bored,

living here amongst us dinosaurs

Shine little Superboy
