When you saw her face
You thought that nothing could go wrong
And then you saw her smile
You used to be so very strong

But even x-ray eyes
Could not realize
Everybody loves and everybody falls
And everybody, everybody feels this way

'Cause even Superman has kryptonite
And though he tries with all his might
'Cause even Superman falls to his knees
Beggin', "Please, please, please, please"
Beggin', "Please, please, please, please"

Now Lois Lane feels safe
Because he's flyin' up above
But would he save the world
And never hold his one true love?

Then she had a dream
And woke up with a scream
Sayin', "Everybody hurts and everybody falls
And everybody, everybody feels this way"

'Cause even Superman has kryptonite
And though he tries with all his might
'Cause even Superman falls to his knees
Beggin', "Please, please, please, please"
Beggin', "Please, please, please, please"

When Lex Luthor saw
How this weakness made him strong
The diabolic plan
Was in effect before too long

'Cause even giants fall
And every dog eventually has its day
And Achilles has a heel
And even bones still can break
And even Superman, even Superman
Even Superman, even Superman, yeah

'Cause even Superman has kryptonite
And though he tries with all his might
Even Superman falls to his knees
Beggin', "Please, please, please, please"

'Cause even Superman has kryptonite
And though he tries with all his might
Even Superman falls to his knees
Beggin', "Please, please, please, please"

'Cause even Superman
Even Superman falls to his knees
Beggin', "Please, please, please, please"
Beggin', "Please, please, please, please"
Beggin', "Please, please, please, please"

'Cause even Superman
