Margot Kidder

You wouldn't know it to look at me

But I'm a superhero

I've got x-ray vision and everything

My frail frame belies my strength

I can lift tall buildings

With one hand tied behind my back

But the morning after each episode

I wake up at home, alone

Despite my mediocre looks

I'm daily dared by damsels

To fight international crime

In the end I always win the day

I save the world, I get my girl

But the morning after each episode

I wake up at home, alone

The comfort of knowing that

I've saved you all wears thin

My superhuman efforts

Largely go unrewarded

The government won't take my phone calls

On my days off I hang around

The centre of town

And the morning after each episode

I wake up at home, alone

The comfort of knowing that

I've saved you all wears thin

The days after each episode

I wake up and wish that I

Wouldn't be expected to get out of bed

And help mankind

I'd comb my hair a little differently

And put on some glasses

Find somewhere to hide

Tell the United Nations that

They've got the wrong number and

I'd live a quiet life
