[Team StarKid, Jeff Blim, Joseph Walker, Brian Holden - The American Way lyrics]
Truth and liberty and justice all
Are in jeopardy tonight all we cherish here
And all the values that we hold dear
Are in the balance tonight
'Cause we’re American and it’s America
And in America we do what’s right
The firetruck’s here for the
Kitty in the tree
Oh, the American way!
And if the cops can’t come
You can always call on me
That’s the American way!
Because, I can therefore I will
(spoken) we could have been friends, Batman
But let it be known this is what happens
When you don't return people's phone calls!
Tonight it’s personal
I’m unleashing my arsenal
To rain blood tonight
Tonight I’m gonna save my bro
And if all the city has got to go
Then so be it
'Cause it’s America and I'm American
And in America i do what I like
If money can’t fix it than
I haven’t found it yet
Oh, the American way!
Be a born billionaire and have
Your butler build a jet
That’s the American way!
Because, I can save my chum
I'll do what I have to i’m my own boss, man
Tonight we’re taking back the town
We’ve got the bat trap set
We’re gonna catch the clown
In America tonight!
We’ve got a warhead ready in the water supply
Tonight The Bat and his bull won’t fly
So, Robin, goodnight!
'Cause it’s America and we’re American
And in America we fight!
Never gonna win til your enemies are dead
Oh, the American way!
Spreading dread and blowing up their heads!
That’s the American way!
Because, I candy do as I please
I’m spreading chocolate, baby
On Gotham’s cheese!
The letter of the law is a capital "S"
Oh, the American way!
We’re all just pawns in a
Fuckin’ game of chess!
That’s the American way!
A briefcase filled with two dollar bills
Oh, the American way!
Inheritance trust funds million dollar bills
That's the American not quite Canadian
Most of us are Mexican
American, American, American american way!
Are in jeopardy tonight all we cherish here
And all the values that we hold dear
Are in the balance tonight
'Cause we’re American and it’s America
And in America we do what’s right
The firetruck’s here for the
Kitty in the tree
Oh, the American way!
And if the cops can’t come
You can always call on me
That’s the American way!
Because, I can therefore I will
(spoken) we could have been friends, Batman
But let it be known this is what happens
When you don't return people's phone calls!
Tonight it’s personal
I’m unleashing my arsenal
To rain blood tonight
Tonight I’m gonna save my bro
And if all the city has got to go
Then so be it
'Cause it’s America and I'm American
And in America i do what I like
If money can’t fix it than

Oh, the American way!
Be a born billionaire and have
