[00:02.60] When light is shed on Gotham City

[00:05.60] You'll see these streets are far from pretty

[00:08.61] What happened when the disunfranchised want no pity

[00:12.10] The slope we stand upon is slippery

[00:25.36] Calling all Gothamites, I got a riddle for you

[00:28.35] What I'll become of justice when it has nothin' to lose?

[00:31.10] It puts on a mask same as any criminal do

[00:33.85] Then it commits a little violence with a righteous excuse

[00:36.60] Have you got any guesses yet? Can I give you a clue?

[00:39.10] This mystery isn't a what, it's a question of who

[00:41.86] Initially it'll be an enigma to you

[00:44.35] Until you see what the light in the sky is signalin' to

[00:47.10] That symbol, but what it represents is hidden from view

[00:49.60] A substich within us equally vindictive and cruel

[00:52.35] And if you get addicted to it it'll split you in two

[00:55.10] And then I villain, is what it turns a victim into

[00:57.85] It can be medicine for anyone, sick of abuse

[01:00.35] It's what the destitute denizens of this city could use

[01:03.10] It can't be kept in custody, I'm done with this interview

[01:05.85] Riddle me this commissioner who's questioning who?

[01:09.86] I got a riddle for you

[01:11.85] What's making this Knight so Dark?

[01:15.10] I got a riddle for you

[01:17.10] What's got a worse bite than bark?

[01:19.85] Did your tongue get got by the cat?

[01:22.60] Nothing to be done, but gettin' back

[01:25.10] Riddle me this, riddle me that

[01:27.10] What's blinder than justice, rabid as a Bat

[01:30.35] Listen up, I got a riddle for you

[01:32.35] What can deliver a verdict without a sliver of proof

[01:35.10] It's not a judge or a jury, but surely will execute

[01:37.85] It's in the dirt on your shoulder with a chip on it too

[01:40.60] If you're a crooked politician it has business with you

[01:43.10] It isn't part of the mafia, but it's slick in a suit

[01:45.86] Tying it's loose ends off, nothing is slippin' the noose

[01:48.60] And if it was to be caught it'd be by the skin of a tooth

[01:51.10] It's always keeping a score, which I'm familiar with too

[01:53.86] I am synonymous with it by definition, it's true

[01:56.35] A vigilante could live off of it as if it were food

[01:59.10] This simple singular noun, how many syllables? Two

[02:01.85] Did you figure it out? Gonna skip to your loo?

[02:04.61] I'll follow up with a duh to your zippity-doo

[02:07.11] I guess underestimated just how witty were you

[02:09.85] But I had to see for myself what this detective could do because

[02:13.85] I got a riddle for you

[02:15.85] What's making this Knight so Dark?

[02:19.11] I got a riddle for you

[02:21.10] What's got a worse bite than bark?

[02:23.85] Did your tongue get got by the cat?

[02:26.60] Nothing to be done, but gettin' back

[02:29.10] Riddle me this, riddle me that

[02:31.11] What's blinder than justice, rabid as a Bat

[02:34.10] I got a riddle for you

[02:36.35] What'll finish a job that the law didn't do

[02:39.11] When you're cheated and robbed, it is given to you

[02:41.85] To get you out of the corner that you've been driven into

[02:44.35] It can be deadly as it festers if you're letting it stew

[02:47.11] Becomes a poison that privilege did unwillingly brew

[02:49.85] A dangerous intuition which if you're listening to

[02:52.35] All of your rhyme and your reason will soon bid you adieu

[02:55.10] Believing you are the hero is what it tricks you into

[02:57.60] Cause when you lie to yourself enough, isn't it true

[03:00.36] So if you think you would fit a description similar to

[03:03.10] Then you're the answer to my riddle and I'm riddled with you

[03:07.10] I got a riddle for you

[03:09.10] What's making this Knight so Dark?

[03:12.60] I got a riddle for you

[03:14.60] What's got a worse bite than bark?

[03:17.35] Did your tongue get got by the cat?

[03:19.86] Nothing to be done, but gettin' back

[03:22.35] Riddle me this, riddle me that

[03:24.60] What's blinder than justice, rabid as a Bat

[03:28.35] City of Gotham, please do not cry

[03:33.35] This is not good night, it's just goodbye

[03:38.35] (Laughing)
