Lyrics
I used to wish that superman would fly right down to save me
If Flash could only take my hand, my fear could never take me
But Dr. Doom was waiting 'round the corner
and Mom and Dad just never had a clue
So Chaos took his place at our dinner table nightly, and I wondered
Super hero, where are you
Sometimes I'd only hear them fight, but most times I would feel it.
My signal burned into the night, but even Batman couldn't see it.
So with my spider senses tingling, I would hide away.
And I'd pray for someone strong to hear my plea.
Professor can you sense that I am here and I need help?
Won't you send one of your X, to rescue me, and maybe...
I could grow up to be Wonder Woman, tougher than the pain
I could fly away like a super hero
And the world I know would never be the same, or this lame.
You can't try to tell us everything will be okay,
if we witness all your anger and your rage.
And the worst thing you can do, is to teach us to be you, if
all the justce that we see is on a comic page.
I grew up fast and grew up strong.
I'm special and I feel this.
and funny, since you've come along,
there's no villian that could steal this.
'cause you and I are the real dynamic duo.
I don't need those other guys to make it through.
What I needed all along was to know that I am strong.
The only super heroes here, are me and you.
And I have grown up to be Wonder Woman
I'm tougher than the pain
I can fly away I am a super human.
And the world I know will never be the same.
