Not since superman died

He was born to a whore
on a flophouse floor
they held him up and he cried
said have you ever heard
a sound so sore
said not since superman died
She cursed and hit
and denied him tit
'til he grew and ate her alive
said have you ever seen such a mess
said not since superman died
She was walking down
near the edge of town
so they stopped and gave her a ride
said have you ever been to baltimore
said not since superman died
She wagged her tongue
as he gripped his gun
and she touched his hand and he cried
said have you ever had a girl before
said not since superman died
He was caught in the midst
of a nicotine fit
it burned him up from inside
said otis do you have a cigarette
said not since superman died

They wrapped her in a plastic bag
and threw her over the side
said otis do you ever feel remorse
said not since superman died
