Hair of heavenly light
Hung down around her shoulders
Electric blue
Were her eyes as she fused them to mine
How the sparks did fly
Like the fourth of July when she caressed me
And like the hammer of Thor
The thunder did roar through the night

Little did I know
That underneath the glow
She had a heart
Of pure kryptonite
Kryptonite
Kryptonite
Kryptonite

Now inside this man
She built up a Superman kind of ego
With a trigger
That only her kind of woman could pull
Then she aimed me at myself
And blew me off the shelf of reality
And I couldn't do nothin'
Like a puppet with clipped strings
I fell

And it was too late for me
Too late to see
She had a heart
Of pure kryptonite
Kryptonite
Kryptonite
Kryptonite
Kryptonite
