Overpower

OverPower is an out-of-print collectible card game produced by Fleer Corporation originally featuring characters from Marvel Comics and later from DC Comics and Image Comics. The game was initially launched in August 1995. In the game, two players went head-to-head with teams of four heroes and villains. Unlike most other collectible card games of the mid-1990s, OverPower was very distinct strategically and structurally different from Magic: The Gathering. more »

My name's Jack Strive, I'm 83
I sit in my house, just a-watchin' the TV
Yeah, I look outside and see the kids tear my lawn
Little punks - don't respect the land they're on

Well I'm sick of these brats and I wanna kick their ass
What the hell good

Does someone hear the cries or see the fears or heal the pains
Of old Strive's blues - no, no

I've got one friend left in life, his name's Jack too
And we meet, whenever I'm feeling blue
Yeah, I take him down from the shelf on the wall
Get drunk as hell, we have a ball

The doc says if I don't stop drinking I don't have long
All the better for me
I'll soon see my family

Everything that I have loved has died away and I'm here all alone

Yeah, not one call - no one writes
For 41 years Strive has crawled into his empty bed at night
Car wreck took his drunk boy too age 21
Why not take old Strive instead - my boy was so young

Strive cares for nothing on this earth anymore
Why was he left to live on

Not a soul to share my misery - I drink alone
Sometimes I wonder if I live my hell right here at home

No souls care, no one sees, the incredible intensity of inner pain

Strive's sorrows are built up in his heart one by one
But they're too busy to care

You little fucker, I told you to get off my lawn, and now you're going to pay the price
