So Long Superman - Firewater

So long Superman

Got a suggestion for ya Check for kryptonite before ya Try to break a horse

Hey, ho, here we go now

Pulling onto the freeway

Just like any other weekday

Except there’s no remorse

Cause I’m gone

And now nothing seems to matter

Traded in my silver platter

For an empty plastic tray

There was nothing left worth waiting for

The kids burned down the candy store

And I’m waiting for a train

So long, Superman

I’ll light a candle for ya Say a prayer when California

Falls into the sea

L.A. I never know ya Goodbye, good riddance to ya Go to hell and hallelujah

You never meant much to me

I don’t care

Where the track leads I will follow

I left like Lou Ferrigno

Tearing at the seams

I couldn’t take that town to more

A whole world I ain’t seen before

So I gave up the gravy

For sweet obscurity

So long, Superman

I’m taking a vacation

I’ll miss your medication

It helped to ease the pain

I’ll see you back in Reno

Outside the Grand Casino

In your old El Camino

Singing in the rain

No plans

I go where the machine goes

The past is a placebo

Dissolving in a drain

I sleep beside the railroad tracks

No more rent ot income tax

I’ve got no fixed address now

I’m waiting for the train
