When I was young, no worries in my head
I used to flap my arms, and fly around the bed
Just like a super bird, zoom, zoom, zoom
Up and down the chandelier, all around the room

When I told the people that I could really fly
They said that little boys ain't supposed to lie
Poor little super bird sitting on the ground
No zoom, zoom, zoom, when anyone's around

Fly, fly, fly super bird, super bird
While you're young super bird, super bird
There's time enough to wreck your dreams
Have your fun, super bird

They said I couldn't, so what did I do then?
I cried myself to sleep and never tried again
Poor little super bird they woke you up too soon
No Santa Claus or green cheese on the Moon

It skipped my mind for years, at least until tonight
When I tucked the kids in bed and I turned out the light
There at the doorway, you'll never guess what I heard
Zoom, zoom, zoom, super bird

Fly, fly, fly super bird, super bird
While you're young super bird, super bird
There's time enough to wreck your dreams
Have your fun, super bird
