[Intro]
When light is shed on Gotham City
You'll see these streets are far from pretty
What happens when the disenfranchised want no pity?
The slope we stand upon is slippery
*phone ringing*
[Verse 1]
Calling all Gothamites, I got a riddle for you
What'll become of justice when it has nothin' to lose?
It puts on a mask same as any criminal do
Then it commits a little violence with a righteous excuse
Have you got any guesses yet? Can I give you a clue?
This mystery isn't a what, it's a question of who
Initially, it'll be an enigma to you
Until you see what the light in thе sky is signalin' to
That symbol, but what it represents is hiddеn from view
A substance within us, equally vindictive and cruel
And if you get addicted to it, it'll split you in two
And then a villain is what it turns a victim into
It can be medicine for anyone sick of abuse
It's what the destitute denizens of this city could use
It can't be kept in custody, I'm done with this interview
Riddle me this, commissioner, who's questioning who?
[Chorus]
I got a riddle for you (What's making this knight so dark?)
I got a riddle for you (What's got a worse bite than bark?)
Did your tongue get got by the cat?
Nothin' to be done, but get 'em back
(Uh) Riddle me this, riddle me that
What's blinder than justice, rabid as a bat?
When light is shed on Gotham City
