| Super Hero
I bought a paper the other day
More bad news is on the way
Twenty-eight bodies in North Ireland rubble
Better get on that, on the double
They're fighting again in Afghanistan
The rebels there have made a stand
In Northern Belfast they pick up the pieces
In a school somewhere it's someone's thesis
So please get back here on the double
The whole wide world's in a heap of trouble
And you're my super hero
Yeah, you're my super hero
This will be your finest hour
'Cause you're the one with all the power
To make this madness disappear
To get us through another year
My super hero
Turned on the TV the other day
More bad news is on the way
In a church in England they honor their dead
When a constable falls we must forge ahead
They're searchin' for bodies in Lebanon
She weeps for her family, they're all gone
In Washington I was shocked to see
They caught the President doin' the nasty
So please get back here mighty quick
Our world, you see, is awfully sick
And you're my super hero
Yeah, you're my super hero
My night in shining armor, benevolent defender
You'll fight to the end and never surrender
Come make this sadness go away
We'll live to see a better day
My super hero
I listened to the radio yesterday
More bad news is on the way
Children are starving in villages and towns
They live with disease and sickness abounds
In Nairobi they had one hell of a day
An American embassy was blown away
And what of Diana, such a waste
A world in mourning, such style and grace
So please get back here right away
I'm counting on you to seize the day
And you're my super hero
Yeah, you're my super hero
My beacon of hope, my inspiration
I stand in awe of your dedication
So erase our past and discard all fact
And pray that our children may never look back
Did you know you're my super hero
You gotta know you're my hero
My super hero
Yeah, you're my super hero
My one, my only
Forever lonely
Super hero
