A cover of Flaming Lips' 'Waitin' for a Superman' by Scott Whitten.
Recorded on May 4th, 2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

I asked you a question
I didn't need you to reply
Is it gettin' heavy?
But then I realized
Is it gettin' heavy?
Well I thought it was already as heavy as can be

Is it overwhelming
To use a crane to crush a fly?
It's a good time for Superman
To lift the sun into the sky
'Cause it's gettin' heavy
Well I thought it was already as heavy as can be

Tell everybody
Waitin' for Superman
That they should try to hold on nest they can
He hasn't dropped them
Forgotten or anything
It's just too heavy for Superman to lift

Is it gettin' heavy?
Well I thought it was already as heavy as can be
Tell everybody
Waitin' for Superman
That they should try to hold on best they can
He hasn't dropped them
Forgotten or anything
It's just too heavy for Superman to lift
