On Batman: The Brave and the Bold tv show the Birds of Prey got a little musical number. It's full of inneuendo, it's a bit silly, but it's a darn catchy song. You can view it here. Go watch it, I'll wait.
Now you've watched it, here's a transcript of the words (found here):
Hit It
(music starts)
Good evening all you gentlemen
mobsters creeps and crooks
Men in tights come after you and still your off the hook
for those who scare and terrorize it's the dawn of a brand new day
You scum can simply call us the one and only Birds of Prey
Green Lantern has his special ring
Pretty strong that little thing
Blue Beetle's deed's are really swell
but who will bring him out of his shell?
Flash's Foe's they finish last
Too bad sometimes he's just too fast!
While all the boys can always save the day
No one does it better then the Birds of Prey
The one and only Birds of Prey
While all the boys can always save the day
No one does it better
No one does it better then the birds of prey
Green Arrow has Heroic traits
That is when he's shooting straight
Hey!
I'm just saying!
Aquaman's always courageous!
His little fish, less outrageous!
Plastic man can expand
becomes putty in a hand
While all the boys can keep you punks at bay
No one does it better then the birds of prey
the one and only birds of prey
While all the boys can always save the day
No one does it better
No one does it better then the birds of prey
Batman throws his batarang
what a weapon, what a bang
check out that utility belt
sure can make a girls heart melt
He's always right there for the save
I'd like to see his secret cave
While Batman does things in his special way
He'd do it better with the birds of prey
While Batman always seems to save the day
No one does it better
No one does it better then the birds of prey
birds of prey
meow!
Well I don't know about you, but that wasn't quite what I was expecting from a kid's cartoon! saucy enough to make you laugh but innocent enough to go over kids heads.
I'm not quite sure which hero I feel sorry for the most..probably Aquaman or Green Arrow. Poor ducks.
I wonder how the other heros match up. What do you reckon the Birds would say about Mr Miracle, Hawkman, Booster or Superman?
In completely unrelated news, I just discovered this dramatic chipmunk clip and this clip of someone taking badgers on a walk. It's adorable. You need sound.

But what happened next? Did they get away? (I guess that would depend on why they were there).

Hawkman's mace will quite impress,
but we find he lacks finesse.
And Scott Free will take on your pains,
but only if he's wrapped in chains.
@FA: I'm really not sure!
@odditycollector: you, my dear, write wonderful couplets!
Those double entendres in those lyrics are so amusing.
I love the dramatic chipmunk!!! I laugh EVERY time, and I've seen it like fifty times.
OMG, odditycollector, that was priceless!!
