Heros Meeting

The Phantom called a meeting for he wished to unionize
the trucks had been delivering unloading their supplies.
  Bat man and his robin boy came bursting threw the night
  The shadow showed up early to find the perfect light.
The ranger with his six gun didn't come alone
Tanto rode up with him mounted on his roan.
  Cisco came in swaying to his mariachi band
  Pancho had his plate of beans and burrito in his hand.
When Zero used the bathroom it's there he left his mark
while the sergeant rode in circles all about the park.
  When spider man showed up his shirt was all a mess
  a pigeon on a window sill do-doed on his vest.
I tell you it was crazy when they argued over dues
all they did was sit and eat and drink the Phantoms booze.
  When the meeting was adjourned the Phantom left the room
  The heros followed close behind and left the place in ruins.
They should never organize, that should come as no surprise
one has but to realize, that's why they're all disguised.
                                                                         "THE PHANTOM"
