The Last Ten Years (Superman)

Oh, the last ten years, it's been quite a trip

Over thirty-six-hundred spins around without a cosmic slip

But within the realm of our atmosphere

We're 'bout as out of whack as we've ever been in a million years

We watched the Y2K scare in a panic

And we watched as time proved Nostradamus wrong

And we watched as Mother Nature shook the planet

And cellular replaced the telephone

We lost Charlie Brown, Ray Charles and Johnny Cash

We even lost Superman

Mm-hmm

Well, the last ten years, look at the hills we've climbed

The best golfer's black, the best rapper's white and it's about damn time

But we best beware, there's a brand-new fight, you see?

And I hate to say we might be our own worst enemy

We watched Oklahoma sifting through the damage

And we watched a US President get caught

We watched shareholders watch their savings vanish

We all cried when we watched those Towers fall

We lost Minnie Pearl, Ron Reagan and Sam I Am

We even lost Superman

Expensive gas and free downloads

The dot-com boom, and reality shows

What's gonna happen next is anybody's guess

Satellite radio and hybrid cars

Hand-held computers and a trip to Mars

It's all become a part of who we are

In the last ten years

In the last ten years

We lost George Harrison, John Paul and June Carter-Cash

Hell, we even lost Superman

We gonna miss you, Chris
