I wanna be like superman
I’ll fly around I won’t give a damn
I wanna be like Peter Pan
Staying young in my Neverland
But people try throw their sticks and stones
They say mean words and they break my bones
Used to cry at night when I’m all alone
But I remember, oh my mama
She said son there’s haters all around
You gotta shut them out
Don’t let your mama down - that’s what she said
Son you gotta stand your ground
That’s what it’s all about
Don’t let your mama down - don’t let your mama down
I’m gonna chase all my wildest dreams
Ain’t gonna be nobody stopping me
Even though they bring me down
I get right up rising from the ground
But people try throw their sticks and stones
They say mean words and they break my bones
Used to cry at night when I’m all alone
But I remember, oh my mama
She said son there’s haters all around
You gotta shut them out
Don’t let your mama down - that’s what she said
Son you gotta stand your ground
That’s what it’s all about
Don’t let your mama down - don’t let your mama down
