Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mmm
You high, baby?
Yeah
Yeah?
Talk to me
You want me to tell you something?
Uh-huh
I know what you wanna hear

'Cause I know you want me, baby, I think I want you too
(I think I love you, baby) I think I love you too
I'm here to save you, girl, come be in Shady's world
I wanna grow together, let's let our love unfurl
You know you want me, baby, you know I want you too
They call me Superman, I'm here to rescue you
I wanna save you, girl, come be in Shady's world
(Ooh boy, you drive me crazy) bitch, you make me hurl

They call me Superman
Leap tall hoes in a single bound
I'm single now, got no ring on this finger now
I'd never let another chick bring me down
In a relationship, save it, bitch
Babysit? You make me sick
Superman ain't savin' shit
Girl, you can jump on Shady's dick
Straight from the hip, cut to the chase
I tell a motherfuckin' slut to her face
Play no games, say no names
Ever since I broke up with what's-her-face
I'm a different man, kiss my ass
Kiss my lips? Bitch, why ask?
Kiss my dick, get my cash?
I'd rather have you whip my ass
Don't put out, I'll put you out
Won't get out, I'll push you out
Puss blew out, poppin' shit
Wouldn't piss on fire to put you out
Am I too nice? Buy you ice?
Bitch, if you died, wouldn't buy you life
What, you tryin' to be my new wife?
What, you Mariah? Fly through twice

But I do know one thing though
Bitches, they come, they go
Saturday through Sunday, Monday (hey, hey)
Monday through Sunday, yo
Maybe I'll love you one day
Maybe we'll someday grow
'Til then just sit your drunk ass on that fuckin' runway, ho

'Cause I can't be your Superman, can't be your Superman
Can't be your Superman, can't be your Superman
I can't be your Superman, can't be your Superman
Can't be your Superman, your Superman, your Superman

Don't get me wrong, I love these hoes
It's no secret, everybody knows
Yeah, we fucked, bitch, so what?
That's about as far as your buddy goes
We'll be friends, I'll call you again
I'll chase you around every bar you attend
Never know what kinda car I'll be in
We'll see how much you'll be partyin' then
You don't want that, neither do I
I don't wanna flip when I see you with guys
Too much pride, between you and I
Not a jealous man, but females lie
But I guess that's just what sluts do
How could it ever be just us two?
I'd never love you enough to trust you
We just met and I just fucked you

But I do know one thing though
Bitches, they come, they go
Saturday through Sunday, Monday
Monday through Sunday, yo
Maybe I'll love you one day
Maybe we'll someday grow
'Til then just sit your drunk ass on that fuckin' runway, ho

'Cause I know you want me, baby ('cause I can't be your Superman)
I think I want you too (can't be your Superman)
I think I love you, baby (can't be your Superman)
I think I love you too (can't be your Superman)
I'm here to save you, girl (I can't be your Superman)
Come be in Shady's world (can't be your Superman)
I wanna grow together (can't be your Superman, your superman)
Let's let our love unfurl (your superman)
You know you want me, baby (I can't be your Superman)
You know I want you too (can't be your Superman)
They call me Superman (can't be your Superman)
I'm here to rescue you (can't be your Superman)
I wanna save you, girl (can't be your Superman)
Come be in Shady's world (can't be your Superman)
Ooh, boy, you drive me crazy (can't be your Superman, your superman)
Bitch, you make me hurl (your superman)

First thing you say, "I'm not fazed
I hang around big stars all day"
"I don't see what the big deal is anyway
You're just plain old Marshall to me"
Ooh yeah, girl, run that game
"Hailie Jade, I love that name"
"Love that tattoo, what's that say?"
"'Rot In Pieces,' uh, that's great"
First off, you don't know Marshall
At all, so don't grow partial
That's ammo for my arsenal
I'll slap you off that bar stool (ahh)
There goes another lawsuit
Leave handprints all across you
Good Lordy, whoadie
You must be gone off that water bottle
You want what you can't have
Ooh girl, that's too damn bad
Don't touch what you can't grab
End up with two backhands
Put anthrax on a Tampax
And slap you 'til you can't stand
Girl, you just blew your chance
Don't mean to ruin your plans

But I do know one thing though
Bitches, they come, they go
Saturday through Sunday, Monday
Monday through Sunday, yo
Maybe I'll love you one day
Maybe we'll someday grow
'Til then just sit your drunk ass on that fuckin' runway, ho

'Cause I know you want me, baby ('cause I can't be your Superman)

Come be in Shady's world (can't be your Superman)
I wanna grow together (can't be your Superman, your superman)
Let's let our love unfurl (your superman)
You know you want me, baby (I can't be your Superman)
You know I want you too (can't be your Superman)

Eminem's verses in the song are characterized by his famous style of crude and controversial lyrics. The song starts with a conversation in which Dina asks Eminem if he is high and whether he wants her to tell him something. Eminem then proceeds to talk about how he thinks Dina wants him, but he can’t be her Superman. The chorus of the song repeats that he cannot be her superhero.


Eminem's verses in the song are about how he cannot be monogamous and how women come and go in his life. He expresses his aversion to relationships and getting tied down. He also talks about how he believes that women lie to men, and it is difficult to trust them. Eminem's lyrics are misogynistic and shocking, with some controversial lines like “Put anthrax on a Tampax, and slap you 'til you can't stand” and “Don't touch what you can't grab. End up with two backhands.”


Overall, "Superman" is a classic example of Eminem's controversial and often misunderstood style of rap. It talks about his views on women and relationships, and how he cannot be the superhero that some women may expect him to be.
