God bless all policemen and fighters of crime May thieves go to jail for a very long time They've had a hard day helping clean up the town Now they hang from the mantle piece, both upside down A glass of warm blood and then straight up the stairs Batman and Robin are saying their prayers
Batman & Robin: God bless Superman and Superwoman! Aquaman and Aquawoman! Ironman and Ironwoman! Spiderman and Spiderwoman! Plasticman and Plasticwoman! Crazyman an-
Robin: B-b-Batman
Batman: Yes Robin
Robin: W-w-was there ever a Batwoman?
Batman: There was once, Boy Wonder, a long time back
Robin: Where is she now?
Batman: I'm afraid she's no longer with us
Robin: Oh, you mean...?
Batman: Yes, she's in the great belfry up there in the sky
Robin: Holy Saint Batwoman, what happened?
Batman: She rather foolishly got in the way of the batmobile
Robin: Suicide?
Batman: Batricide!
Robin: Gosh, why didn't I think of that
They've locked all the doors and they've put out the bat (Meouw!) Put on the batjamas (We like doing that!) Filled the batwater-bottles, made the batbeds With two springy batrasses for sleepy batheads They're closing red eyes and they're counting black sheep Batman and Robin are falling asleep
(Door opens)
Robin: W-w-w-where are you going Batman?
Batman: The batroom!
Robin: Holyluya!
(Door closes)
