Raised by Bats Full Lyrics

[00:00.18] Here at home in this steeple [00:04.80] Made of chrome, above a city of steel [00:09.21] I've chosen bats over people [00:14.21] 'Cause I never did like the way humans made me feel [00:18.33] So we sleep all day and we rise at night [00:23.20] And we spread our wings and take into the skies [00:27.67] And when the people all stop and stare [00:30.23] And say, "Why you gotta be like that?" [00:32.43] I just look 'em in the eye and tell 'em, "I was raised by bats" [00:38.75] When I was young, I was feeble [00:43.70] And it stung when they pushed me down [00:48.02] I was so hated by these people [00:53.04] That I knew I had to do what I could to get out of that town [00:57.21] So, I ran away to this sacred place [01:02.05] And was taken in by creatures of the night [01:06.63] Now when the people all stop and stare [01:08.97] And say, "Why you gotta dress like that?" [01:11.11] I just look 'em in the eye and tell 'em, "I was raised by bats" [01:16.14] When the people all stop and stare [01:18.12] And say, "Why you gotta be like that?" [01:20.34] I just look 'em in the eye and tell 'em, "I was raised by bats" [01:27.62] Those dark days seem far away [01:31.75] I've risen to a better place [01:36.19] So, do like me, follow the dream like that [01:43.41] Just throw your old life away, and get raised by bats [01:46.77] [01:49.39] [02:03.78] So we sleep all day and we rise at night [02:08.38] And we spread our wings and take into the skies [02:12.66] We do it all our way, live our lives like that [02:17.25] 'Cause there's no one here to fill our heads with lies [02:22.19] And when the people all stop and stare [02:24.34] And say, "Why you gotta be like that?" [02:26.61] When the people all stop and stare [02:28.99] And say, "Why you gotta dress like that?" [02:31.25] When the people all stop and stare [02:33.73] And say, "Why you gotta be like that?" [02:35.93] I just punch them in the eye and I bite them on the thigh [02:38.45] And I kick 'em in the ass where the sun don't shine [02:40.79] I look 'em in the eye and tell 'em, "I was raised by bats [02:44.95] I just look 'em in the eye and tell 'em, "I was raised by bats" [02:49.19] I was raised by bats [02:51.55] I was raised by bats [02:55.06]
