'Why so serious?'
                          He would say as he started to walk my way.
                                    He wears a purple over coat,
                                    His face as white as a ghost.
     
                       Always has a smile beaming from ear to ear
                    Laughing like a maniac till his eyes are full of tears
                            Who is this mad man with hair of green 
                            he is the creepiest thing I've ever seen

                      He always seems to have a trick up his sleeve
             Along with many different weapons' like you wouldn't believe
                 Spreading uncontrollable chaos trying to put on a show
                            Committing crimes where ever he goes  

                      How did this criminal mastermind come to be?
                   What drove him mad to reach the point of insanity?

           Some say he fell into a tank of chemicals that drove him insane 
                 Others say it was the loss of his wife and unborn child
                         Whatever it was it caused him a lot of pain

                              It seems like he was already unsteady 
               Close to that breaking point, slightly losing his mind already
                                     
                                  Maybe he was never really okay
                           All it took was a little push over the edge
                             And we got the Joker we have today
