Five Iron Frenzy – Superpowers lyrics

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 mould.
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 Keroac.
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.

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