So I got bored and wrote this. For those of you who don’t know, it’s a parody of the current hit record Hotline Bling, by Drake. You can listen to that, and sing along with my new lyrics below, here:

 

[Intro]

You used to call me on the
You used to, you used to

 

[Chorus]

You used to call me on the Bat Phone
Late night when you need my help
Call me on the Bat Phone
Late night when you need my help
I know when the Batline blings
That can only mean one thing
I know when the Batline blings
That can only mean one thing

 

[Verse 1]

Ever since I left the city you
Got a reputation for yourself now
Joker was in jail but now he broke out
Boy Wonder’s feeling down, he’s getting stressed out
Cuz ever since i left the city you
Are catching villains less and going out more
Alfred’s cleaning stuff up off the cave floor
Penguin’s more successful than he’s been before

 

[Chorus]

You used to call me on the Bat Phone
Late night when you need my help
Call me on the Bat Phone
Late night when you need my help
I know when the Batline blings
That can only mean one thing
I know when the Batline blings
That can only mean one thing

 

[Verse 2]

Ever since I left the city you, you you
You and Riddler seem to get along
You help him do all his crazy wrongs
Don’t ever listen to our cool theme song
Ever since I left the city you
You got defeated by Ivy’s worst spore
Dropping out of school though you’re a sophomore
Not hanging out with Nightwing like you did before

 

[Chorus]

You used to call me on the Bat Phone
Late night when you need my help
Call me on the Bat Phone
Late night when you need my help
I know when the Batline blings
That can only mean one thing
I know when the Batline blings
That can only mean one thing

 

[Bridge]

These days all I do is
Wonder if you’re teaming with the Batman or someone else
Wonder if you’re running with the villains or someone else
Doing things I taught you, kicking asses for someone else
You don’t need no one else
You don’t need nobody else, no
Why you never in the cave
Out with Scarecrow at a rave
Used to always be brave, be a good boy
You was always there to save, yeah
You should just be yourself
Right now you’re someone else

 

[Chorus]

You used to call me on the Bat Phone
Late night when you need my help
Call me on the Bat Phone
Late night when you need my help
I know when the Batline blings
That can only mean one thing
I know when the Batline blings
That can only mean one thing

 

[Outro]

Ever since I left the city…
