Superpowers - Five Iron Frenzy

Bacon bits and jalapenos on my polish hot dog

Half a pound of potato chips, and a beef jerky log

I press my face to the window

A wrapper sticks to my shirt

Eight people in a stinky van

A couple more couldn’t hurt

Eat some food off the floor

I’ve developed a taste for bread mold

Ride around in a van

Don’t take a shower for six weeks and

We’ve been given superpowers

Ask us for an autograph

We sing, we dance, we’ll make you laugh

Don’t you want to be like us?

Everyone in the band can’t stand me

Just because I fell off the stage

And kind of by accident

I broke the promoter’s legs

Sometimes we have a deadline, for writing our songs

Five minutes left to write this one

La, la, la, la, la, la, la la

Sleep in a sleeping bag

Every floor looks the same as last night

You wake up

You drive

You play a show

And then you sleep again

We’ve been given superpowers

Ask us for an autograph

We sing, we dance, we’ll make you laugh

Don’t you want to be like us?

We’ve been given super powers

Ask about our rock and roll

Our hair, our clothes, hobbies, and pets

Does he have a girlfriend yet?

I sometimes feel like I’m Holden Caufield

Sometimes Jack Kerouac

I wanted to be famous, now I want to take it back

Don’t want to rock the mic

Don’t want to meet the pope

I just want to share with you

How we got this peace and hope

We’ve been given superpowers

(I once wanted to be famous)

Ask us for an autograph

(Now I want to take it back)

We’ve been given superpowers

(I once wanted to be famous)

Ask us for an autograph

(Now I want to take it back)
