Batman

"I'm not gonna kill you. I want you to do me a favor, 

I want you to tell all your friends about me." 

"What are you?" 

"I'm BATMAN!" 

I've seen the future and it will be 

I've seen the future and it works 

And if there's life after, we will see 

So I can't go like a jerk 



Systematic overthrow of the underclass 

Hollywood conjures images of the past 

New world needs spiritually 

That will last 

I've seen the future and it will be 



I've seen the future and it will be 

I've seen the future and it works 

And if there's life after, we will see 

So I can't go like a jerk 



Yellow Smiley offers me X 

Like he's drinking seven up 

I would rather drink 6 razor blades 

Razor blades from a paper cup 

He can't understand, I say 2 tough 

It's just that I've seen the future 

And boy it's rough 



I've seen the future and it will be 

I've seen the future and it works 

And if there's life after, we will see 

So U can't go like a jerk 

No, no 



I've seen the future and it will be 

Wait a minute 



Pretty pony standing on the avenue 

Flashin' a loaded pistol, 2 dumb 2 be true 

Somebody told him playin' cops and robbers was cool 

Would our rap have been different if we only knew? 



I've seen the future and it will be 

I've seen the future and it works 

If there's life after, we will see 

Don't go out like a jerk 



Systematic overthrow of the underclass 

Hollywood conjures images of the past 

New world needs spiritually 

That will last 

I've seen the future and it will be 

I've seen the future and it will be 

I've seen the future and it will be 



I've seen the future and it will be 



I've seen the future and it will be 

I've seen the future and it will be 



"Think about the future"

I saw your friend 1st 

That's who I danced with 

All the time I was watchin' U 

The music rocked us 

Our eyes locked-thus 

Makin' us see a trippy picture shoo 



If a man is considered guilty 

4 what goes on in his mind 

Then give me the electric chair 

4 all my future crimes-OH! 



U whispered something 

It took my mind out like a 

G flat major with an E in the bass 

Your face looked so good 

I wanted to touch your mouth 

My brain is jackin' all over the place 



If a man is considered guilty 

4 what goes on in his mind 

Then give me the electric chair 

4 all my future crimes-OH! 



Let's take a drive, love 

So we can make up our minds, love 

2 commit the crimes of passion 

That sets us free 

Me lovin' U, U lovin' me (me lovin' u, u lovin' me) 



The electric chair

Guilty, (4 all my future crimes) 

And if ya don't really love me

"I'm of the mind to make some mookie. 

phonebook..." 

The phone rings, it's Vicki callin' 

She wants me 2 come 2 the crib 

She says conversation's better than being lonely 

So I try my best to ad lib 

I told the joke about the woman 

Who asked her lover "Why is your organ so small?" 

He replied "I didn't know I was playin' in a cathedral." 

Vicki didn't laugh at all. 



chorus: 

This is where she wants 2 be 

I am what she wants 2 see 

I never known a love so sweet 

Still I keep Vicki waiting... 

Alright 



All is well in Gotham City 

The sound of terror is all U hear 

Sometimes a pistol takes the place of her body 

Sometimes her body's here 

But U see when crime is your only love 

All that matter is the present, the here and now 

People, people, whatever floats this joker's boat 

Is whatever this joker will bang 



chorus 



Oh yeah 



Talk of children still frightens me 

Is my character enough 2 be 

One that deserves a copy made? 

This I one day, hope 2 see 

Until then she's held at bay 

By my animal-like persistence 

Or maybe she's just 2 proud 2 say 

That fate (fate) brought us together 

And this is where she wants 2 stay 



chorus 



chorus 



All is well in Gotham town 

This is where she wants 2 be
