Lyrics:
Just a dime-store poet keeping pace, talking his face blue.
Two dollar store tramps to get a glance, a new chance at you.
Walk past the dancefloor, it's always been a dear friend of mine.
Cut coils and concubines dancing in four-four time.

(Chorus)
"Hey mister!", the bellman says.
"I can only recall and spend some time." I said.
So he replies: "Then how do you manage?".
I dodge the blast and apologise for collateral damage.

In love I've always been a mercenary
but I never leave my post when the cash runs out.
I wanna make you quiver, make your backbone shiver.
Hey kid, take the stage and deliver!

(Chorus)

Original Professor Hugo Strange's tape:
"How does it feel, Wayne? To stand on the very stones that ran with your parents' blood? Do you feel sad? Full of rage? Or does that outfit help bury your feelings? Hiding your true self? You're truly an extraordinary specimen. I look forward to breaking you."

I dodge the blast and apologise for collateral damage.

(Chorus) x2
