work in progress - instrumental only
Little man, batarang in hand
Shufflin’ down the drive
Gonna save the universe
At the tender age of five
Crusading in a well-worn cape
That's gettin' a little small
No point in mending it
Soon it won't fit at all
chorus
He doesn’t know, ‘cause I never show
The way my heart breaks
As I watch him grow
But I’ll be the one in need of a clever disguise
When Batman says "Goodbye"
Runs to me, skinned-up knee
A noble battle scar
One bandaid and three kisses
And he's ready for some more
Our yellow lab needs rescuing
Joker-tied to the clothesline
He doesn't realize
The life he saved was mine
chorus
He doesn’t know, ‘cause I never show
The way my heart breaks
As I watch him grow
But I’ll be the one in need of a clever disguise
When Batman says "Goodbye"
(bridge)
When all the games are through, nothing left for me to do
But gather my sweet memories of the boy that I once knew . . .
. . . oh, I . . . . . . . .(goodbye)
