Also the chorus of Bucks Fizz's "Land of make Believe" features the line, "time to change Superman, he'll be with us while he can"

 

Oh and Keith Harris and Orville sang about Super Duck in the early 80s!

If the OP is still paying attention, could the song be Supeman's Ghost a song by Don McClean which is about the suicide of the TV superman George Reeves who was apparently distressed over his inability to get other acting parts due to being typecast.

chorus begins I don 't want to be like old George Reeves

Stuck in a superman role

I got a long way to go in my career

blah blah etc etc

This a very catchy song with a strong hook and must have had some success as it is on an album with all his big hits
