another tooth brushing song

Kenny isn't a big fan of brushing his teeth. Don't get me wrong, he's a huge fan of sucking the tooth paste off of his tooth brush, but he's not a big fan of actually brushing. As such, we are constantly trying to find new ways to get him to cooperate with the whole process. Mostly, it involves singing various songs. However, since Kenny grows weary of these songs fairly rapidly, we're always looking to shake things up.

We started out with the "Tooth Brushing Song," courtesy of Dr. Prof. Silverman. We then moved on to the '60s Spider-Man theme song. When that grew old, we switched to the George of the Jungle theme song. One night, when Kenny was refusing to sing any of the above, I asked him what he wanted to hear.

"Superman."
"Superman?" I asked.
"SUPERMAN!" came the reply.

As far as I can recall, Superman didn't have a theme song with any actual words. So I went with the closest thing I could think of: R.E.M.'s cover tune, "I am Superman" from the "Life's Rich Pageant" album.

Luckily, this was a big hit. Especially when Overboard jumps in on the harmony. We'll see how long we can make it work, but for now, it's pretty funny to hear Kenny ask for "Superman" and then start singing, "I can do anything" to himself.
