Lyrics
Superman's Cape
Tom Mody
You don't step on Superman's cape
I heard it in some old man's song
So think of me as super great
And never, ever do me no wrong
Maybe baby I can't fly
But no one can take you higher
I see the truth with my X-ray eyes
And I'll walk right through your fire, yeah
You don't step on Superman's cape
And think that I will do you no wrong
I told you I was meant to be great
It's what I'll say when I write my song
[chorus]
I'll take you higher... Desire
I'll take you higher... Desire
Higher... Desire
[repeat chorus]
Maybe baby it's okay
To mess with some other zero
But don't step on Superman's cape
if you want me to be your hero
[chorus]
I'll take you higher... Desire
Higher... Desire
I'll take you higher... Desire
Higher... Desire
