Dean Friedman: Hob-Nobbin'

by Dean Friedman

Superman is a friend of mine. He drops by my house all the time.
He's no different than me or you. He even helps start the barbecue.
And when the rest of the guests get there,
He grills those burgers medium rare. And I'm

Who's that raidin' the refridgerator? It's none other than the Caped Crusader.

He's not all that dynamic. Likes to hang around in his webbed hammock.
But let me tell you, Spidey's in for a shock. 'Cause Gwendolyn's dancin' with Doc Oc. And I'm
