I Wonder Why

lyrics by Jim Sweet

If I was a superhero, I'd be super strong
And super fast
I'd fly around town kicking super villain butt

I'm just your regular average guy
And sometimes I wonder why
Why have all the superheroes gone?
'Cause I just can't believe
They'd leave the job to guys like me
Nothing incredible
Just plain ordinary

'Cause I can't lift a train or fly
Run at the speed of light
Ain't got a cool ring that glows green at night

I'm not super smart
And I don't drive a super fast car
I don't have x-ray eyes
And I can't grow ten times my size
That's why sometimes I still wonder why

No, I've never
Rescued one single girl
But I'm still here just trying to save the world

Even though
I can't lift a train or fly
Run at the speed of light
Ain't got a cool ring that glows green at night

I'm not super smart
And I don't drive a super fast car
I don't have x-ray eyes
And I can't grow ten times my size
That's why sometimes I still wonder why

I wonder why
Please tell me why
