[Intro, translated from Japanese]
This is a special news report: Godzilla has been sighted in Tokyo Bay! The attack on it by the Self-Defense Force has been useless! He is heading towards the city!
AAAAAAAAAGH--!

[Chorus]
I am, (I am) I am Superman
And I know what's happening
I am, (I am) I am Superman
And I can do anything

[Verse 1]
You don't really love that guy
You make it with, now, do you?
I know you don't love that guy
'Cause I can see right through you

[Chorus]
I am, (I am) I am Superman
And I know what's happening
I am, (I am) I am Superman
And I can do anything

[Verse 2]
If you go a million miles away
I'll track you down, girl
Trust me when I say I know
The pathway to your heart

[Verse 2]
If you go a million miles away
I'll track you down, girl
Trust me when I say I know
The pathway to your heart

(I am, I am Superman)
(And I know what's happening)
I am, (I am) I am Superman
And I can do anything (Hey, hey)

[Outro]
I am, (I am) I am Superman
And I know what's happening (Hey, hey)
I am, (I am) I am Superman
And I can do anything

R.E.M.

R.E.M. were an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills, and drummer Bill Berry.

Berry quit the band in April 1997, as they were getting together to record demos for the album Up. He was not replaced on a permanent basis, but the band used an assortment of drummers in his place.
