You've got Batman entirely wrong
John, we are all batpeople
[John Green]
Hank, Gotham never gets better for long
Crime is not actually caused by evil
[Hank Green]
We are all batpeople

Batman's just a rich guy with an affinity for bats
Who's playing out his insane fantasy
How is that heroic?
[Hank Green]
Batman's values and actions are
A reflection of our own values and actions
To make the world better
[John Green]
Does Batman understand how difficult it is
For an underfunded city like Gotham
To replace roads and bridges
[Hank Green]
We see ourselves in the cracks of his façade
In his anger and frustration
Because we have all those things, too

Crime is caused by systemic disenfranchisement
And poverty
And lack of access to job opportunities
[Hank Green]
We are not the heroes earth needs (earth needs)
But the heroes earth just happened to get
