This one's out to all the girls that have been told that they can't be the most and be the most amazing thing in the world.

In an interview Kerli also stated:

Quote mark
When i made my last album, it was a very introverted album. In this new album i've just been putting myself into other people's bodies and trying to see their perspective and just going out into the world and like, seeing what people are feeling and thinking and trying to take from that, you know? And then go to my house and just, transmute what i was feeling. And actually SuperGirl is, i put myself in my mother's body and said things that i wish she would of said to my dad when i was little. I know it sounds a little complicated but, uh, Supergirl is actually about Domestic Abuse; that's something that i kinda wanted to touch on. I want to send a message to girls that, it's okay to thank that you deserve only the best, you know? And act on it. So, but also learn from the, from the negitave experiances and, you know, not beat yourself up over what's happened but like have a possitive self image and like just belive that you deserve the best.

Lyrics

You don't wanna see
Everything that I can be
You say I'm not pretty
That no one else would fall for me

You're like a bully on the playground
You just can't let me live
Treat me like I'm unworthy
Doing things I can't forgive

But go look in the mirror
After you drop your key
And see that all your sorrow
Sure ain't because of me

Don't say a word
I know you don't mean it
And if you do I won't believe it

I won't be hurt
For another minute
You'll be making me a Supergirl

Supergirl, Supergirl
Supergirl, Supergirl

Who told you it was fine
For you to go and trash our place
You really crossed the line
When you barely missed my face

Don't bring me flowers in the morning
I've seen it all before
I move and nothing's changing
Here's your shit and there's the door

Don't wanna hear your screaming
Don't need your psycho love
If that's the way you want it
I don't want you anymore

Don't say a word
I know you don't mean it
And if you do I won't believe it

I won't be hurt
For another minute
You'll be making me a Supergirl

Supergirl, Supergirl
Supergirl, Supergirl
Supergirl, Supergirl
Supergirl, Supergirl

Get out my life
Get out my head
No man like you will sleep in my bed

Get out of my room
Get out of my world
Thank you for making me a Supergirl

Don't say a word
I know you don't mean it
And if you do I won't believe it

I won't be hurt
For another minute
You'll be making me a Supergirl

Supergirl, Supergirl
Supergirl, Supergirl
Supergirl, Supergirl
Supergirl, Supergirl

Thank you for making me a Supergirl
Thank you for making me a Supergirl
