    Superheld Lyrics


    Spoiler:
    Superheld

    heeey
    Ich wär’ so gern dein Superheld,
    ouhh yeah
    Denn viele Leute können sich nicht vorstellen
    Und wissen nicht was es heißt,
    Wenn dein Sohn neben dir im Bett liegt
    Und dir sagt er wär’ gerne weiß.
    Und du weißt, alle seine Superhelden sind weiß
    Von Harry Potter hin zu Luke
    Aber glaub mir, würden die dich persönlich kenn'
    würden die aussehen wollen wie du
    und ich weiß es,
    das es manchmal nicht leicht ist,
    braun zu sein wenn die Mehrheit hier weiß is,
    und man schaut sich um und vergleicht sich,
    fühlt sich alleine und is verzweifelt,
    ich hab’s am eigenen Leib erlebt,
    aber haben mit der Zeit gelernt das die Zweifel
    und der Schmerz mit den Jahrn vergehn
    und du erkennst deinen eigenen Wert
    aber bis dahin
    wär ich so gern dein Superheld,
    dein Superheld mit brauner Haut,
    aber ich kann nicht durch die Lüfte fliegen,
    kann aus den Händen keine Blitze schießen,
    aber was ich kann is für dich da zu sein
    und dir versprechen dich zu lieben.
    Denn viele Leute können sich nicht vorstellen
    und wissen nicht wie es is,
    wenn man als brauner Junge in einem weißem Land aufwächst
    und irgendwas vermisst,
    was du hier nicht kriechst
    Weil du oft hier der Einzige bist
    und ab und zu wirst du gedisst
    Aber glaub mir ,
    nein besser noch, Baby glaub an dich
    und kannst alles schaffen was du willst
    doch ich weiß es, dass es manchmal nicht leicht ist,
    anders zu sein wenn die Mehrheit hier gleich ist
    und man schaut sich um und vergleicht sich
    fühlt sich alleine und is verzweifelt,
    ich hab es am eignen Leib erlebt,
    aber bin meinen Weg gegangen
    und bin kein Superheld
    nur ein einfacher Mann
    der für dich da sein wird sein Leben lang
    aber trotzdem
    wär ich so gern dein Superheld,
    dein Superheld mit brauner Haut,
    aber ich kann nicht durch die Lüfte fliegen,
    kann aus den Händen keine Blitze schießen,
    aber was ich kann is für dich da zu sein
    und dir versprechen dich zu lieben, dich zu lieben!
    Pass auf, mein Superheld is grade mal halb so groß wie ich,
    nein er is kein großer Typ, aber schon so großartig,
    ja das is mein kleiner Mann, scheint als ob er alles kann
    er spielt so gut Fußball in zwei Jahren zieht er Ballack ab
    er kann schnell rennen, gut schwimmen, sicher Fahrrad fahren,
    malt mir schöne Bilder an Weihnachten und an Vatertag,
    er singt, spielt Klavier und spielt die drums
    baut innerhalb einer Minute so’n Transformer zusamm'
    doch das is nicht alles was er kann, er kann schreiben und lesen,
    rechnen aber auch freestylen und breaken,
    passt in der Schule auf denn er will gebildet sein,
    er’s immer nett zu Menschen er is immer hilfsbereit,
    superdicke Muckis und Sixpack aus Stahl,
    Superheld mit brauner Haut, dis' jetzt normal
    und es gibt da draußen viele davon,
    wartet ab eure Zeit hier hat grade erst begonn’n
    (grad erst begonn'n)
    ich wär so gern dein Superheld,
    dein Superheld mit brauner Haut,
    aber ich kann nicht durch die Lüfte fliegen,
    kann aus den Händen keine Blitze schießen,
    aber was ich kann is für dich da zu sein
    und dir versprechen dich zu lieben, dich zu lieben!

    i'm just curious and want to know.
    Uh, Tech N9ne I think?

    I feel like I can't make an informed opinion
    Tech N9ne is good

    I will never understand why he signed Hopsin though.

    a lot of people consider Andre 3000 the best rapper no qualifiers so you're not exactly in small company.

    that sure is a lot of writing over the fictional history of a minor harry potter character

    i think the 'Salazar was actually a racist and really bad' is kind of obviously the reading JK wanted us to take from it, and supported by interviews

    although i'm sympathetic to attempts to find a good side to Slytherin if only because not doing so raises the question of why they don't just expel them after the sorting

    Awww, man, there goes my theory of the basilisk being an emergency anti-horcrux measure because basilisk blood (and basilisk venom) can destroy horcruxes.

    Nope, inherently evil reptile.

    My opinion is that slytherins can be good and griffindors can be bad (snakes and lions will both kill you. One brashly and dramatically, one silently and sneaky-like), and that the ones we see in the book are mostly bad. Maybe in thirty years it will be the time when Griffindor is the house of bullies and jerks.

    To be honest, your theory about the basilisk is really clever, Aliroz.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i wonder if the blond American kid named Dennis the Menace in the white and blue stripes is less anarchic than the black-haired British kid named Dennis the Menace in the red and black stripes.

    i can't really picture the latter coming up with the scheme in the above comic, that's more Roger the Dodger's style.

    I don't rightly know who my favorite rapper is, but I'd like to say it's either Kanye West or Dessa.

    Godric Griffindor's sword was a goblin treasure made by the goblin king to imbibe only what made it stronger (WMG: this does not make it indestructible, just un-rust-able and un-nerf-able.  It can be upgraded but not downgraded, essentially.  The trouble is finding something poweful enough to upgrade it but not powerful enough to destroy it. END WMG  reason for my guess is that it would be stupidly powerful otherwise).

    It is combined in book two with basilisk venom (by means of harry killing the basilisk).  This allows the sword of Gryffindor to destroy Horcruxes.

    My theory was that the power-imbibing sword and the basilisk egg were essentially a "in case of emergency, hatch egg, apply venom to sword".

    Salazar may be minor in terms of Harry's story, but he did influence a good fourth of the school's body.

    As much as the last poster tore a hole in that argument, I kind of like the idea of making Slytherin House less evil. Never liked the idea of being predetermined to be in the club of jerks, and fantasy loves that idea (Tolkien's Orcs, Slytherin House, anyone under the Always Chaotic Evil trope)

    That would be a good instance of camaderie between Gryf and Slyth.

    The two guys did work together to make Hogwarts. They had to have some times when they weren't at each other's throats.

    i've never liked Always Chaotic Evil, either.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    so i decided to read up on the differences between the two Dennis the Menaces, and in doing so found out how there came to be the 2 characters with the same name in the first place

    turns out it's really weird

    The twin morals of Harry Potter were "Racism is bad" and "Don't fear the reaper"

    Both, of course, were distasteful to the fandom of Harry Potter And The Methods of Rationality
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i have to say, the US Dennis looks a lot tamer than our version

    dunno what Mr. Wilson's problem is, that kid's not hurting his glorious lifestyle, he's just relaxing on a hammock

    He was a lot more menacing back in the day. Now he's just a cute semi-mischievous kid.

    Maybe your version hasn't fallen victim to the menace decay.
  • My dreams exceed my real life
    I think Dennis the Menace is one of those situations where a character and an alternative for the UK were created at about the same time.

    Like Captain Marvel and Miracleman.

    US Dennis is a little bit of a troublemaker, the kind to pull a girl's pigtails, steal cookies, blow raspberries at teachers, or accidentally throw a ball through a window.

    There's no real cruelty in him, though.  He's not the kind to set a cat on fire.

    Yeah, I've been reading Dennis the Menace every day in the newspaper since I could read, and I still don't know what Mr Wilson's problem is.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    idk what he's like in today's comics, but he was mainly about getting into fights and causing mayhem and it's hard to imagine him any other way without him being a different character altogether

    from what i've been reading, the American Dennis, he was just a little mischievous and mostly caused problems only by accident

    that was never the case with the Dennis i used to read

    they did try to tone things down for the TV show, but their solution was to make Dennis' arch-enemy, Walter the Softy, a bit more malicious, so viewers wouldn't feel sorry for him when he got beat up

    Ah, see, I never read the good old days.  I bet he was a lot like Calvin back then.

    i don't believe UK Dennis ever set a cat on fire.  that's probably over the line even for him.

    he was certainly more of a troublemaker than Calvin, though

    imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    tbf Walter wasn't his arch-enemy, that was canonically Danny Morgan, who i don't think was ever in the TV show, being primarily a Bash Street Kids character

    in the comics Walter was just an annoying, wimpy kid who Dennis liked to pick on

    Most newspaper comics are just kind of white noise, where you don't dislike them, but they're never funny.

    The only comics I dislike are "Marvin" which is neverending smug poop jokes, and "Herb and Jamaal" which is bored suburbanites being smug about the pettiest victories imaginable
    1. “I go to work, and clock in, and clock out, and every day I wonder if I was supposed to be an alligator instead.”
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    Now that i think about it, The Bash Street Kids were incredibly un-PC by today's standards and i can't picture the BBC broadcasting a show based on them.
  • you know what's the most British thing?

    Streets Skinner.
