| I have no frickin' clue what this song is about. But it doesn't really matter to me. I think it's a very great song because it just doesn't sound the same all the time. It has speed, rhythm, and power, and the solo by Craig is brilliant. It's tied with "All the Fools Sailed Away" as my favorite song from the Dream Evil album. I love the song. |

If my memory serves me right, RJD wrote about the tracks on "Dream Evil" in the tour progamme. I've got one tucked away somewhere, if I can find it, I'll post RJD's comments on this song.
I think it's alomg the lines of people "facing up to the night" ie those of us who are "scared of the dark" being "Sunset Supermen".

I don't know what it's about, but I do know that I love that opening Guitar riff! Craig rocks on that album. _________________ Check out the world's only all-female tribute to Iron Maiden, The Iron Maidens

Sunset Superman. Ive studied alot of TeH Dio's lyrics and analyzed them because he has this wonderful way describing crap. And if your not listening to these lyrics just the music then your missing out.
But this song is crazy. I think it has to do with someone doing there thing for there right reasons in there own mind in there own way and you know the answer to this every nice guy finishes last or is stopped before the good deed comes into play and thats what I think. So do it at night when theres a better chance of not being stopped by someone or something. just my humble opinion tho. |

Does anyone know if there is a song where he repeats a line as many times as he repeats the line, "sunset superman"? I've never actually counted, but it's a lot.
I like the song okay, but he says that so many times that it just seems like it must mean something important to him . _________________ "...you were a fool but that's cool, it's alright!" |

Children... of the Night...
Crime...
its a perfect Time to commit...
after the Sun Sets...

call me the Devil...
its true...
i come out at Night... i look with lust... at your wife...
i steal from the local store...
when the sun goes down...
its the perfect time... to tell your wife... i wont be home soon...
the bar is packed...
with people just like me...
after the Sun is down...
i cheat on my wife... commit adultrey... find a friend...
just for tonight...
i break into your house... when your away...
if its dark...
i will commit a crime...
when the Sun Sets... it becomes a different world...
Night time... is lust...
its only one night...
one night... in the city... i look very pretty...
just give me one night...
tonight...
in the city...
i am woman... too...
i can have any man i want... if i look pretty... in the city...
one night...
just one night... i can take any man i want...
married... i dont care...
i...
am pretty...
dont i look good... hide your wedding ring...
i am yours tonight...
if you could... get away with it...
no strings... no camera...
just you... & a wild woman...
can Man survive...
i dont think so...
but i could... i would... tell the woman...
i am taken...
but the world says... go ahead... be a real man...
cheat...
i am behind you 100 percent...
dont you know...
most people say its ok...
why is the world... in a lie...
not very many good men... few good women...
very few...
did you wonder...
about your children...
children who will out live me... & you...
children... who will some day rule the world...
they learn... from... me & you...
children are special...
i used to watch Andy Griffith... with Barney Fife...
i loved Barney...
what are you going to teach your children...
teach them well...
people are getting very lame... indeed...
do you take the time... to teach your children...
my ex wife took that away from me... because she cheated...
but i live... for a childs laugh... a childs smile...
if we could understand... how golden they are...
i melt everytime i see one...
or hear a child laugh...
it gives me a reason to live... to give...
to a child... who has a parent that doesnt care...
i personally cant belive...
that anyone could not love a child...
i am at a total loss...
when children cant find love...
a parent that doesnt care...
i cant belive...
i wont belive... that a child has to live... without Love...
i refuse to accept...
not one child...
not one...
child... should grow up... without love...
not one...  |

Brilliant song, it's the way he repeats the words in the chorus alot that makes the song funky.
Hiddensight, is that a poem there? some of the lines do indeed remind of the song in a way, who wrote it? |
