about

On April 20th, 2018 I went with my stepfather to the Capitol Theatre in North Battleford, SK for a showing of Dazed and Confused. It was sponsored by North Battleford's long suffering head shop, "The Rock Shop" and the owner was trying to stall for time before beginning the raffle of Jamaican flags and Bob Marley paraphenalia (small towns have not yet suffered the Apple Store-ification of weed). He began to discuss which superpowers he would like to have in real life, and the phrase "I don't have superpowers though, I just get high" came out of his real live human mouth. I wrote it down, and here we are.

lyrics

I don't have x-ray vision
And I can't lift a car
I read books at a normal speed, no one says I'm super smart

I didn't get in the reactor
Before they accidentally locked the door
And when I die, I won't come back, if I do I'll be played by someone else

Yea I don't have superpowers
That means that I can't fly
Yea, I don't have superpowers
I just get high
