Little Superhero Girl

Artist: Corrinne May
Song Title: Little Superhero Girl

I feel like a little girl
Trying to conquer the whole wide world
Everybody wants a piece of me
And I just don't know where to turn
I've got work piled up to my head
All I want to do is jump into bed
And wash away my troubles with lemonade
Play hide and seek with the boy next door
Take a trip to Singapore
And imagine how I'll make the world a better place

All I need is a good disguise
One where nobody can recognize
That I'm feeling so small
All I need is a secret weapon
I've gotta have faith
Zapping monsters into outer space
I'm gonna be a superhero

Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na, yeah

If I were a little girl
Trying to clean up the whole wide world
I'd kick the bad boys back to school
Teach them fighting's just not cool
I'd give every kid a teddy bear
Turn starving people into millionaires
Break glass ceilings with dynamite
Sprinkle a little sugar and spice
Turn the bullies that terrorize
Into pink poodles that bark but don't bite

All I need is a good disguise
One where nobody can recognize
That I'm feeling so small
All I need is a secret weapon
I've gotta have faith
Zapping monsters into outer space
I'm gonna be a Superhero

Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na, yeah

Little superhero girl
Little superhero girl
Save me
Little superhero girl
Little superhero girl
Save me from myself

I feel like a little girl
Trying to conquer the whole wide world

"I feel like a little girl
Trying to conquer the whole wild world"

Some days, I look around me and... well, I feel small. Puny, in fact. Because there are so many other people out there who're greater than I am. Smarter than I am. Wiser than I am. More experienced than I am. Funnier than I am. Prettier than I am. Argh, they're just a whole lot better than I am. And I get scared. Scared of the big boys (and girls). Scared of the bigger, better boys (and girls). Because they make me realise that compared to them, I am nothing. And they cause me to wonder if I'll ever make it to where they're at.

"Everybody wants a piece of me
And I just don't know where to turn"

I've been so short of Me Time of late, that I've begun feeling like I've neglected myself for YEARS. It's crazy! No time to read (yeah, I went book shopping last weekend =p), no time to blog (not as much as I want to lah), no time to take drought-bringing hour-long showers, and definitely no time to burn oxygen-zapping scented candles for kicks. Damn sad case.

"I've got work piled up to my head
All I want to do is jump into bed"

Now, work of late, I must say is REALLY crazy. No kidding! I've got so much to do right now that I really don't know which JR to tackle first anymore. Psycho clients and crazy deadlines don't help either. -_-' I need a holiday. A good, long break (that doesn't include me coming back to work again *snicker*). One that allows me plenty of Me Time alongside plenty of Sleep Time. And Read Time. And Laze-About Time. Oh, and some So-You-Think-You-Can-Dance Time wouldn't hurt either. Tee hee.

Argh, so tired can die. Really beh tahan.

Thank goodness I'm Superhero Girl.
Tene nene! Tene nene!
