"Supervillain" lyrics

(Say, say)
(Say, say)
(Say, say)
(Say, say)

My bruised knees are plastered in the magazines (Say, say)
I see their blue eyes at the front of the battle scene (Say, say)

The kids all think they're supervillains (Villains)
But it doesn't take guts to be so indifferent (Different)
I know you're not like the truly vicious
You're just a child, you can't be a supervillain (Villain)

Now the noose fits around your waist
While you're losing to play that game
Now the noose fits around your waist
But when your mother sees your face
(What's wrong?)

If you want more you better act like you don't (Say, say)
And if it starts to hurt you better not let it show, uh-oh

The kids all think they're supervillains (Villains)
But it doesn't take guts to be so indifferent (Different)
I know you're not like the truly vicious
You're just a child, you can't be a supervillain (Villain)

Now the noose fits around your waist
While you're losing to play that game
Now the noose fits around your waist
But when your mother sees your face

Don't wanna hear you talk, I wanna hear you laugh
You're not made of fire, you're made of ash, uh-oh
We're not built to last, we're not built to last
Don't wanna hear you talk, I wanna hear you laugh
You're not made of fire, you're made of ash, uh-oh
We're not built to last, we're not built to last
