lyrics

EVERY SUPERHERO’S SCARED OF SOMETHING

I can stop a meteor
bounding straight for Baltimore.
I can crush a boulder with bare hands.
Swifter than a bullet train,
mighty as a hurricane,
I have powers no one understands.
I’m big, I’m strong, I’m tall.
I’m the greatest of them all,
But I still need a nightlight in the hall.

Every superhero’s scared of something.
Why must I be scared of the dark?
Couldn’t it be dynamite
A spider bite or Kryptonite?
I could save the world like Tony Stark,

If I weren’t afraid of the dark.
Steady as the Rio Grande,
steadfast as a minute hand,
handsomer than any rose in bloom.
I’m every city’s favorite son,
braver than most anyone
Till you turn the light off in my room.
I’m big, I’m strong, I’m tall.
I’m the greatest of them all,
But I still need a nightlight in the hall.

Every superhero’s scared of something.
Why am I afraid of the dark?
Couldn’t it be dynamite
A spider bite or Kryptonite?
I cold save the world and leave a mark.
If I weren’t afraid of the dark.

The only thing that’s worse than this, no doubt,
I think my baby sister just found out—
And she’s a super villain.

Every superhero’s scared of something.
Why must I be scared of the dark?
Couldn’t it be dynamite
A spider bite or Kryptonite?

Every superhero’s scared of something.
Why must I be scared of the dark?
Couldn’t it be dynamite
A spider bite or Kryptonite?
Truth and justice ought to be a lark,
But not if your afraid of the dark.
