Bob Schneider - "Batman"

[jordotech]

truly, truly awful stuff right here.

[BitJKar]

Well, my name is Batman, but you can call me Bob,

And when I see the boy wonder, I just say 'Yo, Rob!'

I used to wear a cape, and do the leotard bit,

Now, I'm wearin' a hoody and jeans 'cause I... don't give a (I guess I can't say that...)

I used to bust my butt all day fightin' crime,

Now, I'm rockin' the Bob and Tom show, and I sing my rhymes,

And I could... turn any crowd into a crazy old mob, 'cause I'm Batman,

But you can call me Bob.

[BitJKar]

Well, I'll tell you all a story that once happened to me.

Well, me and little Robbin, we were just cuisin' down the street.

We were in the Batmobile, and (uh) we had the lights turned low.

We had a... six-pack of Batbeer on ice, so we were good to go.

[BitJKar]

With the radio blastin' out our old theme song,

Robin kept passin' me that big ol' Bat-bong.

I took a couple of... hits and the next thing I know,

There was a, a cop pullin' us over to the side of the road.

He said (uh) 'Uh, hey! What's your name, boy? You look like a slob.'

I said, 'I'm Batman officer, but... you can call me Bob!'

[BitJKar]

Well, I turned to little Robin; I said, 'Hey buddy, it's gettin' kinda late,'

'I gotta... find a date before I start to hallucinate.'

So, we found this little place, and... ... we went inside,

And they carded Robin at the door, they asked about his age, he just lied.

(He's like thirteen, I think... I'm not really sure how old he is.)

[BitJKar]

Well, I went up to the bar and ordered myself a little... Coke and Jack,

And that's when I felt a strong hand... .. on the back of my back.

And I turned around, and I dropped my drink,

'cause there was this girl there in the mink,

And she was about... She was about the most beautiful girl I've ever seen...

I think...

And I introduced her ' Robin, I said, 'Hey, this little guy's name is Rob, but...'

'Well, I'm the Batman baby, but... you can call me Bob!'

[BitJKar]

Well, I promised to behave, and w'... we went back to the Batcave,

And she took one look at my place, and... well, she started to rave.

And then she gave me a nice kiss, and... she said... 'I'll be right back,'

'I'm just gonna slip out of some of these clothes for a minute so we can relax.'

[BitJKar]

So, she left the room for a minute, and (uh)... Well, I threw on some tunes.

I opened up my new... multi-million dollar skylight so we could look at the moon, (n') (uh)

But, when she came back in.. well she had this big ol'... whip in her hand,

Turns out.. she was the crazy psychotic Catwo-man!

[BitJKar]

She started... chasin' me around my house, and she was screamin' that she wanted me dead!

I had to whip out my Baterang ('n)... ... Hit her right in the head.

She went out like a light, I said,

'Oh man, what a night.'

Had to drag her down to the police department where they locked her up tight 'n,

As I was leavin', the sargent looked at me, and he said, 'Hey, son... you done a fine job.'

I said, 'I know. I'm Batman... but you can call me Bob.'

[kikozoe]

Um, yeah.. this song is called Beatomatic, not Batman.

[remakeme]

@kikozoe

It's actually called Batman but Beatomatic is a different song (same song but different) performed by the Ugly Americans.

[remakeme]

@kikozoe Actually Beatomatic is a different song. Same lyrics but added chorus. the Beatomatic. Also it's a funk version.

Batman is different song. More of a folky country version without the Do you like the beatomatic chorus part.

[dogfaceboy47]

I love how everyone laughs after each "you can call me Bob," as if it's a different punch line every time. :-)
