Part One Lyrics & Tabs by MC Chris
Part One
guitar chords lyrics
The horror, it was Zorro
He was wearin' a mask
I was out with my folks
And we was havin' a laugh
We didn't do this too often,
mingle with the proletariats
folks were old money
And too often they were scaredy cats
Always goin' out
Leavin' me with the help
Always raising funds
And I'm left by myself
They saw that I was missin out
On being a kid
Dad said we're going out
They saw that I was missin out
On being a kid
Dad said we're going out
And I'm flippin' my lid
I was lost in the dark
like that time in the cave
Surrounded by bats
Alone and afraid
Big Z on my screen
Meant dueling and danger
Someone so evil
Can focus their anger
A hero that sent the injust to their ruin
A mask to protect from people pursuin'
A cape to conceal a collection of tricks
And eveything black, on this he insists
I am the Batman
I jump up and then I land
You don't know what I got in my hand
The shape of a bat you go "SPLAT!" and "KABLAM!"
I am the Dark Knight
I do whats right, but I do it out of spite
Don't look quite right if you turn on the light
I'll land with a boom ... fight
Dad had the limo out back
I was sacked out cause I'm a little lad
Don't wanna be older, head's on a shoulder
I heard a loud sound, and I went on the ground
It was sad... and my father was dead
My mother was screamin' till she was shot in the head.
See pearls in a puddle that was suddenly red
The memory gets muddled except what the man said
"Ever dance with the Devil
In the pail moon light?"
A riddle I'll remember
For the rest of my life
This killer was a chiller
I was froze to the bone
Alfred found me, I was howlin'
Like a pup on his own
I made a promise to my parents
In the circle of light
I would vanquish evil in a cape
Maybe some tights
I didn't know how I would do it
Or which form I would take
I just knew it was a creature
Only I could create
I am the Batman
I jump up and then I land
You don't know what I got in my hand
The shape of a bat you go "SPLAT!" and "KABLAM!"
I am the Dark Knight
I do whats right, but I do it out of spite
Don't look quite right if you turn on the light
I'll land with a boom ... fight
...
... pack plenty of socks
brought a legion of luggage
drug it down to the docks
But I gave them the slip
Stowed away on a freight
I was pissed with being rich
Life's a bitch, so they say
Foreign land, with the plan
and the knowledge within
for soon I'd be a man
that would need to begin
This quest to be best
And defend the opressed
Packed in the projects
Like objects and pests
I'd have to return
But for now, I would train
I learned tracking and hunting
On the African plain
In China learned Tao
Japan, I learned Jiu Jitsu
Don't believe you would bleed
Well let me convince you
Nerve pinch, in a pinch
...
Used the Quivering Palm
In a fight take a life
Over a hundred forms
Of hand-to-hand anguish
...
Learned every language
Studied shadow with ninjas
disguise and escape
Leanred boxing, detoxing
Concealing with capes
Went to Cambridge, ...
But never for too long
'Fore the end of the semester
I would have to be gone
Came home to forgotten
Gothem's so rotton and twisted
Came home to my mansion
It's a vast stash of riches
Brooding in the darkness
With a bust of my father
A bat through the window
A question of honor
I am the Batman
I jump up and then I land
You don't know what I got in my hand
The shape of a bat you go "SPLAT!" and "KABLAM!"
I am the Dark Knight
I do whats right, but I do it out of spite
Don't look quite right if you turn on the light
I'll land with a boom ... fight
