Bedtime at Batman’s
THWACK! ZAP! SPLAAT! WHAP!
Batman’s moonlit fight
OWW! ZIP! OUCH! RIP!
He’s stuck inside his tights
KLUNK! ZONK! THUNK! KLONK!
Batman’s nightly drama
UGGH! CRAAAK! PLOP! WHACK!
To put on his pyjamas
ARGH! YOW! EEK! POW!
Batman takes a stumble
THUD! BANG! AWK! CLANG
He wobbles and he tumbles
WAH! GAH! BOO! HOO!
“Why’s my bedtime cursed?”
MUM SHOUTS, “DARLING!!!
TAKE YOUR PANTS OFF FIRST!”
