Song Lyrics:
Tarzan, wasn't a ladies man
He'd just come along and 
Scoop them up under his arm like that
Quick as a cat, in the jungle.

Clark Kent, there was a real gent
He would not be caught sitting around 
In no jungle 'scape
Dumb as an ape, doing nothing.

Superman never made any money
Saving the world from Solomon Grundy.
And sometimes I despair the world will
Never see another man like him.

Hey Bob, Supe had a straight job
Even though he could have smashed
Into any bank in the United States
He had the strength, but he would not.

Folks said his family were all dead
Planet crumbled but Superman,
He forced himself to carry on
Forget Krypton and keep going.

Superman never made any money
Saving the world from Solomon Grundy.
And sometimes I despair the world will 
Never see another man like him.

Tarzan was king of the jungle
And lord over all the apes.
But he, could string together four words,
I Tarzan, You Jane

Sometimes was Supe was stopping crimes,
I'll be he was tempted to quit
And turn his back on man,
Join Tarzan in the forest.

But he stayed in the city
Kept on changing clothes in dirty old phone booths
Until his work was through, 
Had nothing to do, but go on home

Superman never made any money
Saving the world from Solomon Grundy.
And sometimes I despair that the world will
Never see another man like him.

And sometimes I despair the world will
Never see another man like him.
Hmmmmm . . . .
