God bless all policemen <br />and fighters of crime, <br />May thieves go to jail <br />for a very long time. <br /> <br />They've had a hard day <br />helping clean up the town, <br />Now they hang from the mantelpiece <br />both upside down. <br /> <br />A glass of warm blood <br />and then straight up the stairs, <br />Batman and Robin <br />are saying their prayers. <br /> <br /> * * * <br /> <br />They've locked all the doors <br />and they've put out the bat, <br />Put on their batjamas <br />(They like doing that) <br /> <br />They've filled their batwater-bottles <br />made their batbeds, <br />With two springy battresses <br />for sleepy batheads. <br /> <br />They're closing red eyes <br />and they're counting black sheep, <br />Batman and Robin <br />are falling asleep.<br /><br />Roger McGough<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/goodbat-nightman/
