Crimefighter Father

If a little bird landed on my shoulder

In the past and said that I would make an amazing dad

I would've just looked at the little bird and laughed

I would've continued to laugh until I could laugh no more

And then flick the poor little bird off my shoulder

Causing the little bird to shake its head in shame and then fly

I am a bat the fierce phantom of the night

Where some villains are afraid to even speak my name

I am not a dad and never cares to become one not now not ever

I am not the type who chases some random child nightmares away at night

I've built a fortified stainless steel wall around my heart

Encased in so many chains and locks

To open up my heart you'll need a lot of keys

I lay down the law my law where no one messes with my heart

And tells me what to do

Now years later I finally see what they mean

As I watch my little robin sleep under the covers so snug and warm

Both of us aware of the dangers that lurk outside and beyond

Always having each others backs and protecting the people of Gotham City

The love between father and son is stronger than any other bond that we share

Now if the same little bird came back and sat down on the exact same shoulder

And told me the exact same thing like he did years before I'd laugh

And say I wouldn't change any of this for all the money in the world
