Even Superheroes Fall Victim to the Daily Grind
For those who don't know about this section... you can comment on lyrics!
Do so IMMEDIATELY. "These bills get me down" he groans As he flies toward the centre of the pacific To stem yet another horrific Earthquake, stopping it from rending the globe He forms a humanoid bore, A makeshift drillbit To penetrate the very core of the earth To vent the pressure, to avert the disaster A tectonic event for his platonic love of humankind He forces a tunnel The lava flows through And into the depths of the sea He watches with melancholy He thinks "maybe one day I should become the disaster In the hope that someone might vent the pressure in me But my boss pushes me around And these bills get me down My boss pushes me around And these bills get me down" He works full weeks, on five hours sleep And soon his goals are redefined Its hard to keep, so hard to keep This heroic frame of mind A second life becomes a vice When you can't pay the bills on time It seems that even superheroes Fall victim to the daily grind |
I really like it; it's something people don't generally think about when they dream of being a superhero. I picture HORSE the Band singing it. And that's a good thing.
However, I think you could work on your grammar and punctuation. For example: Quote:
as he flies toward the centre of the Pacific to stem yet another horrific earthquake; to stop it from rending the globe he forms a humanoid bore, a makeshift drillbit to penetrate the very core of the earth; to vent the pressure; to avert the disaster -- a tectonic event for his platonic love of humankind -- he forces a tunnel. Or, if you prefer, you could break it down into several sentences. I often get carried away with my semi-colons. :) |
rending the globe sounds kind of funny, but thats probaly because i've heard rending used like twice...
Also, I think "The lava flows through into the depths of the sea" would sound better, then if it had the and in it. Its good not my favorite by you but still good. |
