Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house - sandman

Not a creature was stirring, not even a flying mouse; - joker

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, -toy man

In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; -toy man

The children were nestled all snug in their beds, -sandman

While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads; -sandman

And mamma in her 'kerchief, and him in his mask, - joker

Had just settled down for a long winter's nap, -sandman

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, -joker

I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter. - Toy man

Away to the window I flew like a flash, - joker

Tare open the shutters and throw up the sash. -toy man

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow -joker

Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below,
- Toy man
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, -sandman

Batsy and his crew so near, -joker

With a little old driver, so lively and fixed, -toy man

I knew in a moment this must not be quick.- toy man

More rapid than eagles his coursers they came, -sandman

And he slivered into the shadow, as he called me by name; -joker

"we are coming for you joker, I swear -batman

Come out and fight if you may dare?" -batman

To the top of the porch! I laughed as we called! - Joker

"Now kill them, kill them all!" -all three

As as toy helicopters before us fly, - toy man

When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky, -toy man

So up to the house-top the idiots they flew, - joker

With them knocked out, hope we aren't screwed. -Sandman

And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof -sandman

The prancing of a bat boot.-joker

As I drew in my head, and was turning around, -toy man

Threw the window batman came with a bound. -Joker

He was dressed all in black, from his head to his foot, -sandman

And his belt were all filled with goodies and loot; - joker

A bundle of toys he had flung on his back, -toy man

And he looked like a moron just opening his pack. -Joker

His eyes -- how they twinkled! his glare how scary! -Sandman

His bomb went off it was glarey! - Toy man

His freaking fist was drawn up like a bow, -joker

And the punch hurt that followed; -sandman

It hit so hard knocked out some teeth, -toy man

And then smoke encircled his head like a wreath; -sandman

He had fell asleep and fell on his belly, -joker

he shook, and i laughed now he was jelly. -Joker

He was out cold thanks to partners that helped, -sandman

And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself; -toy man

A close of his eye and a twist of his head, -joker

Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread; -sandman

We spoke not a word, but went straight to our work, -toy man

Sandman Tied him up to a chair. He is such a jerk, -joker

And laying a finger aside of batman's nose, -toy man

Batman awoke and everyone froze; -sandman

He sprang to his feet, to his team gave a whistle, -joker

And away they all flew like the down of a thistle. -Toy man

Beat us up, -toy man
threw us in arkaum, -joker
and drove out of sight, - sandman

"I'm here to protect the city, commit a crime, you'll be in by the night" -batman
