Written and recorded in Nov 2014 at Western State Hospital in Staunton, VA

lyrics

A4: “Super Hero” By: Andrew Neil Maternick, November 2014.
Getting bolder living my dreams
And It ain’t over till’ the fat lady sings
I hear her choking on chicken wings
Casket open for all life brings
for all life brings (Repeat 2 times)

I am dead yet so alive
Color red won’t stop my drive
Thoughts in my head commit suicide
No regret or shame to hide

Does the truth always get raped by a blind mob?
I’m a superhero with no cape just living my job
And I’m the one they love to hate the broken cog
A superhero with the same fate as God

Salt on this slug a bit too much
Enjoying death by a thousand cuts
When I think of death I’m no longer afraid
Breath by breath the truth is made
The truth is made
The truth is made
Judas gets paid

I am dead yet so alive
Color red won’t stop my drive
Thoughts in my head commit suicide
No regret or shame to hide

It ain’t over... (repeat 4X)
It ain’t over till’ the fat lady sings
I hear her choking on chicken wings
