Jeopardy

Face down on the floor, my hands behind my head
And if I move an inch, they're gonna shoot me dead
Feel the call of the magnum on my cheek
Tension is gonna reach it's peak
Remember today, remember today

Letters arrive to say "I seem so far away"
Don't wanna answer all the questions, such a waste of time
No liability, no way to get to me
I can disappear

Promises I made, to be the best I can
A timer ticking down, I need to hatch a plan
No one thought I could be incredible
Quiet and quite forgettable
Now get on your feet
Now get on your feet

In slow-motion
Turn my back on the jeopardy?
No, you gotta be kidding me
That'll signal the death of me
Guess I'll wade in the mire

See the table in the kitchen that you planned my future on
But you knew I was something else
Turned around and the kid had gone
Give me the jeopardy
'Cause I need it
Secret identity
Can't reveal it

Time to be a superhuman
Time to fight for planet Earth

Bing, bang, boom
Stopping all the crime in the nick of time
Bing, bang, boom, boom
Shield you from the blast, 'cause I move so fast
I'm gonna save you, save you
I'm gonna save you, gonna save you

I'm your knight in this shining armor
I was born to be in your color
Keeping it together through Armageddon
'Cause I would never
No, I would never

Turn my back on the jeopardy?
No, you gotta be kidding me
That'll signal the death of me
Guess I'll wade in the mire

See the table in the kitchen that you planned my future on
But you knew I was something else
Turned around and the kid had gone
Give me the jeopardy!

I'm gonna save you, save you
I'm gonna save you, gonna save you
