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
