| Big Head Todd and the Monsters – Resignation Superman Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| I take it literally. Superman is THE iconic figure of doing 'the right thing'. He ALWAYS finds a way, ALWAYS does the right thing. Even when the world turns against him, he is the comic book world of the 'perfect man' (i.e. Jesus in the comic book world). So, it is unthinkable to have such a character do it. That is why this song is enjoyable. To think that the world goes SO rotten, even an unbreakable man has his limits and just walks away. For those comic book people, "Kingdom Come" is about just that. He walks away from mankind due to mankind walking away from him. They turn in their ethics for what they believe the world to be. So, he turns his cape in. He walks away from them. He watches them on TV; seeing the world go to sht and says 'not my problem'. Both the song and the comic book are powerful. | |
