If I Could Be a Superhero

I don’t think I could be Superman

I’m sort of scared of heights

I’d sort of like to be Spiderman

But I’m afraid of spider bites

I suppose I could be Wolverine

But I’m afraid people would stare

I’d consider being the Incredible Hulk

But radition’s bad for your hair

The fantastic four, now there’s a thought

But I’m not sure that’s for me

Ben’s too ugly, Johnny too hot

And Sue I just can’t see

Maybe though I could be Reed

And lead the other three

Well maybe Reed’s a bit of a stretch

I can barely take care of me

Captain America, him perhaps

I love his mighty shield

But I fear I’m not brave enough

When things get rough, I yield

If I could be a superhero

I wonder which I’d be

Or maybe it’s time I tried to find

The hero inside of me
