Superhero Lyrics

You were smiling by my table
Had to call up everyone that day
A beautiful mind and body
What a happy ending I see

My mind had been enabled
In a memory you overflowed
Want to be your superhero
Even if I tumble fall

I'm okay
You have that effect on me
But I need you desperately
You know I need you desperately

Brick or stone cannot hurt me
Madmen around the city go
They attack I'll bring them down
Making their chances super low

Oh my my, pretty naval
Dimple cheek, a face I adore
Want to be your superhero
Fallin' from a running horse

I'm okay
You have that effect on me
But I need you desperately
You know I need you desperately

I, oh, I
Hold to that illusion
I, oh, I
I'm not your average guy

Other guys they won't dare to
Join the line in order you peck
When they introduced me to you
My face had turned to super red
Your steady beck and call boy
Playin' on piano
Want to be your superhero
Not afraid to tumble fall

I'm okay
You have that effect on me
But I need you desperately
You know I need you desperately

Want to be your superhero
Yeah I want to be your superhero
I want to be your superhero
Oh I want to be your superhero
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

I think this song is about meeting an amazing girl and having to not hold back and just put yourself out there with the risk of possibly looking stupid / silly to get to know her and show her that you are interested. Also about beating out the competition of guys trying to impress and get with said girl.

ENTOURAGE!!!!!

love this song, almost as much as i love entourage

is there a different version used in entourage, cause perry farrel's vocals sound different, and the music seems a little harder in the entourage version, but that's probably just me. they might've just edited it all to hell ;)

like all of the strays album its about being famous.

this particular song is about how when your famous you can do no wrong. everybody loves you and nothing can hurt you (ego-wise).

@minimacas I really can't see that at all. To me it seems that it is obviously about a girl they love ... they want to be their superhero.

This song to me encapsulates the feelings you have when you fall in love. You want to do anything and everything for them, and don't want to see any harm come to them. In effect you want to be their personal "superhero".

Most the lines throughout to me quite obviously reflect the love for a woman.
