Paul Williams - Somebody Super Like You (Beef Construction Song) Lyrics
We need a man that is simple perfection
There's nothing that's harder to find
Someone to lead us protect us and feed us
And help us to make up our minds
We need a man that's sophisticated
Where to go what to do
Could it be somebody super like you
We need a man that can stand as a symbol
And symbols have got to be tall
Someone with taste and the tiniest waist
With his help would not life be a ball
If we had fun he would not restrain us
If we got caught he would just explain us
Where to go what to do
We pledge allegiance to his gracefulness and charming manners
With a voice that's both sides choice he'll bring us to our knees in admiration
He is king of all who see and hear his perfect pitch
And more surprises when his time is come a stallion rises
We need a man with a head on his shoulders a nose that is simply divine
Hollywood smile and a perfect profile and with eyes that would sparkle and shine
Long flowing hair for a crowning glory
There'd be a man who could tell our story
Where to go what to do
Could it be somebody super like you
We pledge allegiance to his gracefulness and charming manners
With a voice that's both sides choice he'll bring us to our knees in admiration
He is king of all who see and hear his perfect pitch
And more surprises when his time is come a stallion rises
Rises... rises... rises

sin duda las mejores canciones
Somebody super like you!!! Wooooooo!!!!
Glad my dad introduced me to the movie and I'm a 90s baby and I'm a huge fan
they lookin for a leader for the alt right. read the lyrics - spot on XD
BEEF BEEF!!!
Symbols have got to be Tall Indeed mothafucka!
Mucho burro . burronieto. Peñaburronieto. El cartel the burronieto.
Don't know why but I sing this song to my pet pigeon, i replace every "man" with "pigeon", and call the song "The rise of pigeon king" and he simply loves it. When I start singing he starts his pigeon dance.
I like the song, but it presentation in Phantom of the Paradise is disgusting.
It's pure camp - it's not meant for kids I'll grant you, but it's not supposed to be taken seriously. It's like slapstick comedy, melodrama or a Vincent Price horror movie.
You're right. The first time I watched it was in 2005 (I was 5 years old, and my parents didn't like that I watch the movie. I didn't care this song, I liked other things) Now I'm 19 years old, but I don't like it at all. Faust song is better than Somebody like you in my point of view, but it depends on the person's likes, and it's understandable.
You gotta admit, this scene is pretty cool. I would watch this performed live.
I so desperately want to do a drag king routine with this song.
Totally loved this movie when I first saw the movie,
Come sarà succhiare la cocaina da una lattina di coca-cola invece di inalarla?
How could it be to eat cocaine sucked from a Coke can, instead of inhale it?
Better than Rocky Horror.

Who could that be
Esa es música de verdad inspirada por eso es inmortal de todos los tiempos
Before Rocky Horror Picture Show, there was Phantom of the Paradise. It was a pretty good movie and the music was great. Unfortunately, it never achieved the cult status that Rocky Horror did ... pity!
Lo mejor en esos tiempos
i can listen to this all day in the summer
I love this movie so much and criminally underrated.
I love this song i remember lot of friends
BEGIN HEAVY METAL OZZY PREFORMS IN PARIS 1970 METAL WAS BOURNE WARLOCKER
such a fun madness vibe
You r a freak
The closest Paul ever came to glam & metal! Touches of Alice Cooper & pre-Bat out of Hell! Thought it was such a stretch for him to play a boozing drug taking partying type.....then I found out later...
he really WAS like that!
& like most took it too far. Glad he's clean now!
I didn't know any of that until I saw the documentary Paul Williams Still Alive. It really surprised me. Am happy he cleaned up his act (and in the same year I was born, 1990)
Alice Cooper! yes this song has heavy Cooper vibes
https://youtu.be/gP3-TZZuRR8
I wonder why Winslow offed Beef instead of The Undeads/Juicy Fruits/Beach Bums because he obviously has a stronger distaste for their music as shown by the outburst towards philbin and attempted murder by way of dynamite.
Long john Silver Beef was trying to sing a song meant only for Phoenix. Winslow killed him because he was infringing on his art.
SUPER WONDERFUL!!!!!! SIMPLY EPIC!!!!!! GREAT!!!!!
Are they sing about Trump?
james hardin don't bring politics into this.
Sounds like Soft Cell! XD
Imagine Marylin Manson singing THIS!
Definitely not
Nope. If anyone...It would be Alice.
hell no
Just did
....it sucked.
this is that best song ever
this is that best song ever
this is that best song ever
I love this songs so mucho
I love this songs somuch
I love this songs somuch
9 people aren't so super like us...
Benjamin Stevens Now it's 14 lmfao
The singer sounds like Alice Cooper!!!
Mm...no, not really, but I like your ideas.
That was more or less the point. They had the 50's greasers pop rock, then happy sounding Beach Boys and this is the horror rock.
Best song on the soundtrack
My dad introduced me to this movie. Both the film and the music ROCK!
Al Alex same!! This WAS my childhood movie 🍿
This movie is Horrible, but the soundtrack is amazing, I love all this fucking songs, love it
+salvador hernandez Horrible? I don't think you saw the same movie I did. Paradise is a fantastic film that was ahead of it's time
so true - went to the movie last night - sold out - all of older people there remembering watching it at 10 years of age - horrible but the music was awesome
+salvador hernandez you're crazy you don't know what talent is.
Watched this early Brian De Palma Classic on DVD last night, I hadn't seen it for years. Fantastic! It's everything that THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW was supposed to be-or wants to be- but isn't. Main difference? This one has a SOUL and characters, not ciphers.
Absolutely, that's part of its charm.
Pfffft. Says you.
Huh? Why bash RHPS just because you like this? In my opinion, they're very different. I love RHPS, and no not because of all the audience participation stuff. It's not super deep but it's fun and has a special magic to it. Then this show is its own unique thing, as well. The plot is pretty convoluted and bizarre, so honestly it lost my interest after a certain point, but the style and acting and music keep it intriguing. I particularly liked the parts with Winslow before he gets his face smushed. There was just something really interesting about him. I watched this movie because I'm a big Phantom of the Opera fan (the book, etc.)...this movie, of course, barely has anything to do with the original story...except the "disfigured guy who writes music and wants a specific female to excel versus an obnoxious diva" aspect (I had to laugh at the "Carlotta"/diva in this version, a funny twist!). But the rest is more Faustian music producer mogul stuff. That was a tangent. In any case, while I guess both are "weird movies with fun music," they're extremely different. You can like one, or both, or neither independently of the other. I don't think RHPS wanted or was trying to be this at all!!
eibon81 They’re both excellent films. One is more of a musical while the other is a movie about Rock ‘N Roll 😎✌🏽🎉🇺🇸
Not comparable edge lord.
I saw this when it first came out, bought the vinyl as soon as it was available, then the VHS, finally the CD and DVD - sadly too far away at the momnt so I am so glad this is available ;-) Thank you!
slywlf believe it or not! I bought it on vinyl for a dollar 💵 back in the day,nostalgic !
I'm a Winnipegger I still love this song. RIP Winslow Leach aka William Finley
Same here
JAIMEY go Jets!!!!
Dylan Duval I definitely have a reason to go to Winnepeg now! LOL😀
Wait he died?
@R Romero W I N N I P E G
Why couldn't I have been alive for this era..?
Paul Williams = Never stale.
This music is so stupid it's absolutely brilliant,it's Forrest Gump meets Einstein
the old times, never gonna gorgot.
Exactly. Never gorgot.
Fucking great comment!
the best song ever
This film proves you can emulate brilliant artists like Alice Cooper and Elton John and put completely ridiculous lyrics in. Its all in the rhythm!
as long as it sounds good nobody cares what it´s about. no one cares what´s anything is about. who the hell listens to lyrics anyway?
+PlayGamePlayGamer I think that's the first time i saw someone quote philbin. Swan and wilson yes but philbin... nice one :)

"Dry up, Tubbo."

Peter Elbling aka Harold Oblong. He was actually a comedian and has mostly just done writing since.
Who's the singer?
Paul Williams is the man!
This movie is the GOOD version of The Rocky Horror Picture Show- check that, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is the inferior version of this since it came out a year later.
this is a Broadway musical waiting to be born...the songs, story and characters are great
I'm 16 years old, and I like this music!, weird? no, I just like the Good Old Music
Uncultured teens with no apprehension of true art?
my fav song in the movie.
looks like theres 2 of them...but i say nothing about rocky horror cus i never saw it
And with the whole coreography this song is vene greater n creepier... Ssssuper
Is it my imagination or the singer has an indian accent?
the only thing cooler than this is getting a blow job from justin "the meat cleaver"
bieber's mom huh
Oh, and the silent movie version of Frankenstein.
This song is like a cross between the Beatles and The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari.
Ssssssssssuuuuuuuuuuuuuper like me :)
im a rocky horror fan and i like both phantom and rocky?
Who in the world would dislike a song like this.
exactly...
White man stole the USA from the Indians... now, are you gonna say that the White man was inspired to steal that too??? ;)
More likely inspired than stealing
5 years old? Christ, you make me feel old. I
