Flowerparts
Bob Schneider

Tell me how do you make a superman?
With courage and a steady hand,
Conviction and a damn good attitude,
Spiritual and moral fortitude?

But don’t forget the flowerparts…
A soft touch and an open heart.
A rainbow and some empathy.
Compassion and sympathy.
Don’t forget the, ‘I love you’’s,
Oh, and, ‘I forgive you’’s too.
It’s the little things that separate
The good from the great.

So tell me how do you make a superman?
With honesty, and discipline,
Endurance and stamina,
An icy stare, a steely jaw?

Don’t forget the flowerparts,
A soft touch and a bleeding heart,
A rainbow and some empathy,
Compassion and sympathy.
Don’t forget the, ‘I love you’’s,
Oh, and, ‘I forgive you’’s too.
It’s the little things that separate
The good from the great.
The good from the great
The good from the great
The good from the great.

It’s the little things…
It’s the little things…
Yeah, it’s the little things
That separate
The good from the great.
