Story Behind The Song

I'VE HAD A FEW OF THOSE "SECRET" CRUSHES (WHERE YOU IDOLIZE SOMEONE LIKE A HERO) & I WANT TO THANK THEM ALL FOR INSPIRING THE SONG. ALSO, I WAS A BIG FAN OF SUPER HEROES, ESPECIALLY THE SUPERFRIENDS, WHEN I WAS GROWING UP IN THE 70s.

Song Description

IT'S ABOUT HAVING A SECRET CRUSH ON SOMEONE AND COMING TO TERMS WITH IT. IT FEATURES SUPER HERO, VAMPIRE, AND SEA CREATURE IMAGERY.

Lyrics

ALIENS, BEDUINS, AND LEOS
WE'RE HANGING OUT AT CLEO'S
LIKE SUPER HEROES
JUST LIKE SUPER HEROES
SOMETIMES I'M DARKER THAN BATMAN
SO MUCH DARKER THAN BATMAN

SO LIFT ME UP LIKE SUPERMAN
SWIM ME DOWN WITH AQUAMAN
SPIN ME 'ROUND LIKE WONDER WOMAN
WHATEVER YOU'RE DOIN' JUST KEEP ON DOIN'
DOIN' IT TO ME, DOIN' IT TO ME

I CAN'T ESCAPE YOUR X-RAY VISION
YOU SWIM WITH SHARKS ON TELEVISION
YOUR LASSO BRINGS TRUTH TO SUBMISSION
MY VAMPIRIC TENDENCIES ARE IN REMISSION
SOMETIMES I'M DARKER THAN BATMAN
SO MUCH DARKER THAN BATMAN

SO LIFT ME UP LIKE SUPERMAN
SWIM ME DOWN WITH AQUAMAN
SPIN ME 'ROUND LIKE WONDER WOMAN
WHATEVER YOU'RE DOIN' JUST KEEP ON DOIN'

SOMETIMES MY LOVE IS LIKE A BARRACUDA
TEETH SO SHARP, THEY CAN RIP RIGHT THROUGH YA
SOMETIMES MY CRUSH FEELS DARK AND LETHAL
BUT YOU LIGHT IT UP LIKE BURNING DIESEL
YOU'RE A SHARK WITH A DOLPHIN'S HEART
AND I CAN TEAR IT APART
BUT I WON'T

'CAUSE YOU LIFT ME UP LIKE SUPERMAN
SWIM ME DOWN WITH AQUAMAN
SPIN ME 'ROUND LIKE WONDER WOMAN
WHATEVER YOU'RE DOIN' JUST KEEP ON DOIN'
DOIN' IT TO ME, DOIN' IT TO ME
WHATEVER YOU'RE DOIN' JUST KEEP ON DOIN'
YEAH, LIFT ME UP LIKE SUPERMAN
SO LIFT ME UP LIKE SUPERMAN
SWIM ME DOWN WITH AQUAMAN
SWIM ME DOWN WITH AQUAMAN
SPIN ME 'ROUND LIKE WONDER WOMAN
WHATEVER YOU'RE DOIN' JUST KEEP ON DOIN'
WHATEVER YOU'RE DOIN' JUST KEEP ON DOIN'

AND I WILL TELL THE TRUTH: HERO WORSHIP
I WILL TELL THE TRUTH: HERO WORSHIP
I WILL TELL THE TRUTH: HERO WORSHIP...
