Batman
Wearing a dishtowel around his shoulders as a cape
This gleeful child claiming to be Batman
Jumping off the footstool,
Leaping around the room,
Determined to save the world
Had to grow up
A world of worries of his own,
The enemy is a mighty foe
There's always a furrow in the brow of youth
A childhood world he must let go
When the world contrives to knock you down,
who will come to rescue you?
