Waiting for Superman

She’s watching the taxi driver, he pulls away She’s been locked up inside her apartment a hundred days She says, “Yeah, he’s still coming, just a little bit late He got stuck at the laundromat washing his cape” She’s just watching the clouds roll by and they spell her name like Lois Lane And she smiles, oh the way she smiles She’s talking to angels, counting the stars Making a wish on a passing car She’s dancing with strangers, falling apart Waiting for Superman to pick her up In his arms, In his arms Waiting for Superman She’s out on the corner trying to catch a glimpse Nothing’s making sense She’s been chasing an answer A sign lost in the abyss, this Metropolis She says...Yeah, he’s still coming, just a little bit late He got stuck at the Five and Dime saving the day” She says...If life was a movie, then it wouldn’t end like this Left without a kiss Still, she smiles, the way she smiles, yeah She’s talking to angels, she’s counting the stars Making a wish on a passing car She’s dancing with strangers, she’s falling apart Waiting for Superman to pick her up In his arms, In his arms She’s waiting for Superman To lift her up and take her anywhere Show her love and climbing through the air Save her now before it’s too late tonight Oh, like a speeding light And she smiles She’s talking to angels, she’s counting the stars Making a wish on a passing car She’s dancing with strangers, she’s falling apart Waiting for Superman to pick her up In his arms, In his arms She’s waiting for Superman To lift her up and take her anywhere Show her love and climbing through the air Save her now before it’s too late tonight She’s waiting for Superman
