LOOK--up in the sky
It's a plane
It's a booooid-d
NO--it's SUPER(old)WOMAN

Leap buildings in a single bound!!!!
(til my cape becomes unwound)
I'll rescue stranded pussycats!!!!
('twill take time--not an acrobat)
I'll catch the bad guys, LARGE *and small*!!!!
(what are their names, I can't recall)
I will stop that runaway train!!!!
(wait a sec--gotta grab my cane)
That car is plunging off a cliff!!!!
(oooooh, my muscles are sore and stiff)
I'll throw the bad guys into jail!!!!
(until my kidneys start to fail)
Keep that meteor up in space!!!!
(geez, there's MORE wrinkles on my face)
Somebody's blowin' up the track!!!!
(hope my arthritis don't attack)
There's a ship sinkin' in the sea!!!!
(awwww, can't it wait--gotta go pee)
I'll save you from the things that bite!!!!
('less someone uses Kryptonite)
Someone put poison in the eggs!!!!
( LOOK at these big veins on my legs)
An emergency's been declared!!!!
(adding to all of my grey hairs)
What was I saying 'bout the train????
(tell me--'cause I forgot--AGAIN)
Awwwwwwwww--never mind, I need a nap
(why don't you call that Batman chap)

LOOK--up in the sky
It's a plane
It's a boooooooooooiiiiiiddddddddddddddd-d
It's SUPER(old)WOMAN
