lyrics

You are amazing
You are astounding
You spread your wings and you're learning to fly.
You are evolving
And you are growing
this thing you got is a thing you can't buy.

You're in the x-men
And the avengers
The justice league of america too
yeah you're a marvel,
from out of DC,
you're a dark horse breaking free from the petting zoo,

and the only thing that ever gets you down
is when your fellow caped crusader cannot deal with having you around

and I,
I'm your kryptonite
'cause I
I am the thing that dims your light
for I always make you sad
when you should be feeling glad
when you should be all lit up and feeling fine
well, I'm your kryptonite,
and you are mine.

you do your homework,
you do the grunt work
you're workin' hard every day and every night
and I admire you
and I applaud you
you're freaking awesome, you're indubitably outasight.

and the only thing that's looking out of place
is that look of disappointment every time I see your lovely face

and I'm your kryptonite
'cause I
I know my head ain't screwed on right
and I only cause you pain
and it's driving me insane
and I can't ret-con my way out of this story line
yeah I'm your kryptonite
and you are mine.

and you say that I'm not man enough,
that I can't stick with the plan enough,
"man up," you say, "man up and make
as if nothing's amiss."
but I'm doing the best I can,
and I've been doing the best I can,
I keep doing the best I can,
and the best I can ain't man enough for this.

and I'm your kryptonite
yeah, I
I am wound up way too tight
I can't do this anymore,
I am tired of keeping score
I am held together with scotch tape and twine.
Yeah I'm your kryptonite
And you're mine.
