Guided By Voices - Daily Planet lyrics

rate me

(R. Pollard - J. Pollard - Mitchell)

Assassin at an earlier time:

(Laughter) Ah, Shit!

Strange Signal:

Yet...Four...Two...Going...

1, 3, 6, twenty five times, the Jericho mile, it's 15, 17...18 if

one could possibly remember...what!?

Local Observer:

Today Superman jumped off a building

And he couldn't fly

And he couldn't fly

Straight to the ground he fell

You should have seen him die...oh

Drunk at the end of the bar:

He ate a pound of Kryptonite

He ate a pound of brotherly love, baby

Strange Signal:

One...$.02 now...I wish it could be, if it was only there...I know

Local Observer:

He didn't know it was Kryptonite

Superman took a dive

And he hadn't

He didn't know how to fight

For truth, for justice, for safety of man

Old Dude with paper in hand:

For law and order, read all about it, Make another plan

Strange Signal:

4, 6, 12 (undecipherable) no more boys

Local Observer:

Try Green Lantern or the Caped Crusader

His Friend:

But they're always out of town

Local Observer:

Sipping candy liquor on a Sunday beach

His Friend:

Yeah, they're always out of reach

Local Observer:

But Superman's gone, the morning papers read

Drunken Englishman:

No, he couldn't be!

I knew he's dead!

He couldn't be dead

Local Observer:

He's invincible and we need him in this town

Roving Reported in Istanbul (televised):

Uh, what will life be without Superman around?

News only Channel 17:

This is the latest on channel 17 news...Jimmy Olson wrote the story

and Lois Lane provided the tears

Paper Boy:

Read all about it!

Read all about it!

Dick West:

The start of "The Turbulent Years"

(12 YEARS LATER - SOMEWHERE IN NORTHERN ALASKA)

Strange Signal:

Uh, which one is the ground system

And blowing smoke out the eyes of another

And drilling two holes in the bottom of the Earth

Where life could be once again

Like it once was

In the ice age

In a kingdom long ago

Without chance

Without hope

Without vision

And therefore:

Always creating the same effect

Without ever knowing...

...Why
