#Listening to Runt's self-titled album from 1995. Still love it!
"Super hero, I don't think so
Super hero, just a dreamer
Stranger from another planet
He's a man we cannot trust
He's got my heckles up, I'm seeing red, ha ha
But petrified as well as mad, ha ha
The superman is in his head, ha ha
He's someone I would like to be
But can't believe"
Runt, 'Super Hero'

... and yet the very next song is a prohibitionist rant against cannabis dealers. The only song on the album I never understood the motivation for. Lyrically it just doesn't seem to fit with anything else on the album, and Runt were the only underground band I knew of in the 90s with an anti-cannabis song.
I mean, their contemporaries were putting out songs like this!
