Superman Lyrics

you've been on my mind and I don't think I have the time
to listen to your voice
I've heard it all before, it's been seeping through the floor
shut behind closed doors
but I can see right through you now
the beneficial lies are told to keep us with closed eyes
shading what's in store
I guess it's up to me to find the luck and turn the key
and open up these doors but I can see right through you now....
ah yeah I'm superman
a three-piece suit and master plan
here I come to save the day
ah yeah I'm superman
a three-piece suit and master plan
here I come to save the day
well you've been on my mind and I don't think I have the time
to listen to your voice
I've heard it all before, it's been seeping through the floor
shut behind closed doors
but I can see right through you now
ah yeah I'm superman
a three-piece suit and master plan
here I come to save the day
ah yeah I'm superman
a three-piece suit and master plan
here I come to save the day
I don't want to follow
you can't make me follow
I don't want to follow
you cant make me follow now
ah yeah I'm superman
a three-piece suit and master plan
here I come to save the day
ah yeah I'm superman
a three-piece suit and master plan
here I come to save the day

you've been on my mind and I don't think I have the time 
to listen to your voice 
I've heard it all before, it's been seeping through the floor

the beneficial lies are told to keep us with closed eyes 
shading what's in store 
I guess it's up to me to find the luck and turn the key 
and open up these doors but I can see right through you now.... 
ah yeah I'm superman

here I come to save the day 
ah yeah I'm superman 
a three-piece suit and master plan 
here I come to save the day 
well you've been on my mind and I don't think I have the time 
to listen to your voice 
I've heard it all before, it's been seeping through the floor 
shut behind closed doors 
but I can see right through you now 
ah yeah I'm superman

here I come to save the day 
ah yeah I'm superman 
a three-piece suit and master plan

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this song is about society, trends, and the government.

"I don't want to follow you can't make me follow I don't want to follow you cant make me follow now "

and superman might be a sarcastic perspective on how the government thinks it's so big and tough and so righteous "here I come to save the day".

"you've been on my mind and I don't think I have the time to listen to your voice I've heard it all before, it's been seeping through the floor shut behind closed doors "...I think describes UL's take on The Man's voice, how they keep spewing out the same old patriotic white capitalist hoopla year after year behind closed doors, but as it seeps through the floor UL can hear what they say. They don't have the time to listen to them however because they either don't want to or are too busy doing what they want to do, not what The Man wants them to do.

I know this is all extremely topical, but that's just what I get from it.
