    Story Behind the Song
    Adam and Bisson had a friend named James Dinger, so they decided to write a song about him.
    We couldn't get a hold of Dave Omer to do the horns, so Dave Thomas recorded the horn section by himself, overdubbing 4 sax parts in some places. Surprisingly, it actually sounds kind of good. A little reminiscent of the old ska sound.
    All the parts except the sax were done in about two or three takes each. Like the other two songs recorded at the same time, Dave Thomas had to finish Super James after Adam left on his mission.

    Lyrics
    Super James, he does what he can.
    A superhero for every man.
    He travels at night to combat those fiends.
    With stealth-like movements of a submarine.
    A mind like a steel trap,His body is strong.
    Watch out bad guys, it won't be long.
    For justice comes in a convenient frame.
    Look out world It's Super James.

    Super James Super James
    Super James Super James
    He fights for truth
    He fights for light.
    Super James won't give up the fight.

    The night was cold. The blood was young.
    Punk teens are out havin' fun.
    Just when you think things can't get worse,
    The police show up and bullets disperse.
    The cops were down and losing bad.
    The punks had won or thought they had.
    But Super James he saved the day.
    He took those punks. He made them pay.

    Super James Super James
    Super James Super James
    He fights for truth
    He fights for light.
    Super James will win the fight.

    Super James Super James
    Super James Super James
    Super James Super James
    Super James Super James
    Super James Super James
    Super James Super James
    Super James Super James
    Super Super Super Super James
