lyrics

never mind your manners batman
as long as you can pay with your good looks
have you grown out of your bruises wayne
and dealt vicki vale for a babe in the woods?

robin’s got to climb a tree to see
the scale of your imaginary vow
a joker paints the meadows green
for you to see where you can’t go

~
you must be hot like an oven
to make the girls’ hearts melt
how long can it take you to count
three old notches on your belt?

and when you start living
once and forever
please send me souvenirs
the more the better

I never thought you could ---
I’ve always hoped you would ---
I never ever should ---
have skipped to the last page
~

below the floorboards the ladies lie waiting
watching the bottom of your paper boots
you rip off a kiss for a penny worth a pound
way too vain for a guy in a pencil suit

spotlight against your fear of the dark
dear you're caught in a head fight
your cardboard muscles suit you
like they’d fit a cut-out knight
