Superman Lyrics


You know, Snoopy, a little while back I had one of those
Corporal tunnel operations and the doctor told me
"I want you go home and shut up for 4 months"
Yeah, that's kinda tough, I said, "I'll try"
But while I was there, I wrote this song
Too many pain pills, too much pot
Trying to be something that I'm not
Superman, Superman
Trying to do more than I can
Got a little out of hand
I ain't Superman
Know what I'm talkin' about?
I blew my throat and I blew my tour
I wound up sippin' on soup d'jour
I wasn't Superman, oh no, I wasn't Superman
I'm tryin' to do more than I can
I got a little out of hand
I wasn't Superman

I hear you, Nikky, play one
Yeah, play that, Nikky, go 'head
Play it well
Go ahead, Willie
Well, the doctor said, "Son, it's a cryin' shame
But you ain't Clark Kent and I ain't Lois Lane
You ain't Superman, you ain't Superman"
"Trying to do more than you can
And got a little out of hand"
You ain't Superman
What do you think, Snoop?
Well, when I die, put it on my stone
God said, "Snoopy, take your bad ass home
You wasn't Superman", no, I wasn't Superman
I'm tryin' to do more than I can
It got a little out of hand
I wasn't Superman
I hear you
Tryin' to do more than I can
It got a little out of hand
I ain't Superman
Yeah

In 1946, Charlie Parker was committed to Camarillo State Mental Hospital, after a series of incidents related to his heroin addiction and heavy drinking. Coming out of the hospital, Parker was initially clean and healthy, and proceeded to do some of the best playing and recording of his career. Before leaving California, he recorded "Relaxin' at Camarillo", in reference to his hospital stay. He returned to New York – and his addiction – and recorded dozens of sides for the Savoy and Dial labels that remain some of the high points of his recorded output.
