Gotham Shadows: A Batty Musical: I am the night
Batman (leaping rooftop to rooftop, dramatically):
The shadows bow, I am their king, I glide on winds where demons sing, Gotham kneels beneath my might, I am vengeance, I am the night!
(He swings down, punching a thug mid-song) Your face, my fist, they meet with grace, Justice dealt at breakneck pace! CRACK goes your jaw, BANG your head, By dawn, you’ll wish you stayed in bed!
Chorus (Gothamites singing, scared but in awe): He’s the Bat! He’s the night! He’s the punch in the endless fight! Through the shadows, through the pain, He keeps Gotham from going insane!
(Batman continues on his patrol, knocking out goons left and right, dramatically finishing every blow with a line)
Batman (pummeling a thug while singing): With every blow, I clean this street, Every crook, a fate to meet. Gotham’s mine, a beast to tame, By day or night, I’ll play this game.
Chorus: He’s the Bat! He’s the night! Gotham’s dark, but he’s the light! Through the alleys, through the storm, He keeps this city safe and warm!
Batman (staring at the Bat-Signal in the distance, dramatically): So when you see my signal rise, Know justice lives in Gotham’s skies. Fear me, villains, feel my wrath, For I am the night, the Bat, your path!
