Superman's Big Sister Songtext
von Ian Dury & the Blockheads

Till I met her, I thought I knew the answers
I thought a bit of treatment was all a body needs
I′ll take you where the haps are
All the handsome chaps are
Squeeze you till I make your feelings bleed

She put me right behind her in fifteen minutes
She could have had my things off, so sadly was I raised
I had a lot to learn, dear
If I'd gone on the turn, dear
It wouldn′t be surprising nowadays

You know she's Superman's big sister
Her X-ray eyes see through my silly ways
Superman′s big sister, superior skin and blister
It doesn′t seem surprising nowadays... yeah!


Superman's big sister
Superman′s big sister
(Oh-oh-ooh-oh)
Superman's big sister
(Oh-oh-ooh-oh)
Superman′s big sister
(Oh-oh-ooh-oh)
I said she's Superman′s big sister
It doesn't seem surprising nowadays

And now I've had the sense to keep her friendship
And though I nearly miffed it in many little ways
The story′s got no sequel
′Cause me and her are equal
Is that so surprising nowadays?

Because she's Superman′s big sister
Her X-ray eyes see through my silly ways
I said she's Superman′s big sister, his grown up skin and blister
Is that so surprising nowadays?
