Heros Meeting

The phantom called a meeting for he wished to unionize
the trucks had been delivering unloading their supplies.
  Batman and his Robin boy came bursting through 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
   Poncho had his plate of beens and burito in his hand.

When Zero used the bathroom it's there he left his mark
while the sargent rode in circles all about the park.
  When Spiderman showed up his shirt was all a mess
  a pigeon on a window sill had 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 ajourned the phantom left the room
  the heros followed close behind and the room was left in ruins.

They should have never tried to organize
that should have came as no suprise
  One has only but to realize
   is that why the're all disguised
