I am, I am, I am Superman and I know what's happening
I am, I am, I am Superman and I can do anything
You don't really love that guy you make it with now do you?
I know you don't love that guy
'Cause I can see right through you
I am, I am, I am Superman and I know what's happening
I am, I am, I am Superman and I can do anything
If you go a million miles away I'll track you down girl
Trust me when I say I know the pathway to your heart

It's not a Wire cover, it's from a band called The Clique i think
@SwagBag Ding!!! Give SwagBag the door prize. It was indeed a 60's band called the Clique! It should have made it onto one of the "Nuggets" compilations, I do not know why it didn't.

Wire cover.
Who can't relate to this song? Thinking you're the perfect person for someone and since you know but and that someone seems to like another someone, obviously, that would make you Superman!!!
obviously!
I think I know someone who thinks they are superman.
"Strange" from Document was the Wire cover.
Anyway, there's not much interpretation to be done here, I think.
Just about the arrogance of getting dumped.
I Am Superman, BINGO!
A few things:
Hope I was able to clear things up.
@HyperBully Holy-wow, I believe you have massively misunderstood the narrative. It's most certainly not a "fact" that this song is about a stalker. Please consider the era in which the original was written -- this song is about unrequited love; he's pining for the object of his affection and desperately wants to prove his worth.

I agree with HyperBully's #4. When I first heard this song (or actually listened to the lyrics), I immediately thought of The Police's "Every Breath You Take". He's stalking a girl that he likes, who likes someone else.
But I thought of the "I can do anything" as meaning he can do anything it takes to track her down and get her to like him back (as in when he says he will follow her a million miles, and "can see through you").
@BigJ1028 See above -- this isn't about a stalker, it's about a love to be fulfilled; a "crush," in the vernacular.

The name of this song is 'I Am Superman'.
I'm certain you're wrong. The song is called simply "Superman" by all accounts. I don't think it matters though.

I don't think it'shat much of a stalker song.
He just loves her he wants her to know it! She's with the wrong guy. Love the base riff.
