Win One Of Three Lego Batman: The Videogame PSP Packs
Na-na-na-na Na-na-na-na, Na-na-na-na Na-na-na-na, Batman! Na-na-na-na Na-na-na-na, Na-na-na-na Na-na-na-na, Batman!
With The Dark Knight now officially one of the biggest movies in the history of mankind, Batman has firmly been brought back into public eye. And so what better way to celebrate it than by returning it to its camp, 60s TV show roots and combining it with Lego?
The Lego Batman video game is coming out soon on all the major consoles and handhelds, and considering how much we love both Lego and Batman, this has the opportunity to become the favourite game in Gizmodoland.
While our brothers from Kotaku generally get all the cool gaming stuff, we’ve somehow convinced the guys at Warner Interactive to give us three copies of the game to give away. Not only that, they’ll come with three brand-spanking-new PSPs to play them on.
To enter, we’re going to need a little creativity from you. We want you to write a song chorus which uses the words “Giz”, “Lego” and “Batman” somewhere in the lyrics. It would also help if you can tell us the tune to which your song should be sung.
Pop your entries in comments. The best three entries will be judged next weekend with an announcement made next Monday.

Giz puts on a contest for Warner
A lego batman game to be won
I hope this song is a real perfomer
I’d love to get my mits on one.
(Sung to the tune: “Blame Canda” from the South Park movie)
Dear Gizmodo,
Batman here. I hope I’m not too late. There was no actual deadline stated, so please, please accept my entry. Pretty please.
Anyway, this is my rendition of Baby Got Back by Sir Mix-A-Lot entitled Baby Got Shorts. This is dedicated to my one true love. This is for you, baby.
Love, Batman.
——————————————
I like tight shorts and i can not lie
All you other heros can’t deny
When ya side kick’s boomin in those itty bitty shorts
My Bat down under feels da force
You go, damn! wanna rip off dat mask
Shorts so tight, will be a tough task
Deep in the Batman cave you’re playin
With so many bat toys it’s crazy
Oh baby, i wanna get wit ya
Don’t wanna be wit yo sista
My abs are like big Legos
Wait a sec, is it just “Lego”?
Oh, boyish hair
You say wanna get in da bat cave?
Well call me, call me
The bat signal works so slowly
Just like the website Giz
My cave is never closed for biz
You’re green, red
Let’s batarang right now into bed
Know you like the foreplay
But gotta clean up Gotham, whaddaya say?
Aint part of the foreplay but still important, boo
fists up now; let’s push through
So, Robin (yeah!) Robin (yeah!)
Would you like a permanent smile?
Well sniff my! (sniff my!) sniff my! (sniff my!)
Sniff my Batman gas!
Baby got shorts!
To the chorus of “Can’t take my eyes off you” by Andy Williams
I love you Giz-y,
And all Lego I like,
I need a P-S-P,
To warm those lonely nights,
I’ll watch my T-V,
Batman where are you my Dark Knight…
an 11th hour scraped together entry
_________________________________________________
They told you, “you don’t ever want to come here”
In hell’s kitchen you got lots to fear
The penguin’s on the loose, you just shrug and sneer
You’re Batman, Lego Batman
You hoon around on your mighty batbike
waiting for the chance for you to strike
love to pounce from the shadows, so ghostlike
Your Batman, you beat up the bad
You’re Batman, Batman, Batman, Batman
stopping all the crime you can
beating up flunkies, givin’a crime boss a fright
saving the helpless doin’ what’s right
Lego Batman, Batman

Lego Batman, Batman
Lego Batman, Batman
The team at Giz love you, they’re your number one fan

how bout a new organiser to store your great plan?
You’re Batman, Lego Batman
You got the Joker running scared
though it always pays to be prepared
despite the fact you’re emotionally impaired
You’re a Hero, you’re not a Zero
You’re Batman, Batman, Batman, Batman
stopping all the crime you can
beating up flunkies, givin’a crime boss a fright
saving the helpless doin’ what’s right
Lego Batman, Batman
Lego Batman, Batman
Lego Batman, Batman
Lego Batman, Batman
You’re Batman, Batman, Batman, Batman
stopping all the crime you can
beating up flunkies, givin’a crime boss a fright
saving the helpless doin’ what’s right
To michael Jackson’s Beat It
to the tune of Tom Jones – Sex Bomb

Giz give it to me and i’ll be ur robin..

To the tune of “White Houses” by Vanessa Carlton
Smoke from the sewers drift into the air
Blinded by the full moon’s brilliant glare
Carelessly contented as we round the bend
Not knowing what awaits us is the beginning and end
Grasping at the hands that I hold dear
The shattering reports
Ringing cold in my ears
They echo through my mind
Oh they echo through my mind
I shout to the heavens but it’s deaf to my cries
I can’t save the light that fades away from their eyes
I fall to my knees for this sin I can never atone
I feel so helpless facing all the unknown
And I vow
To the silent shadows of night
That I will have my revenge
In Gotham City
Putting on my mask so they’ll never suspect
Striking fear in the felons and the ones I protect
Leaping off of buildings with emotion concealed
Racing down the road in my batmobile
The Joker laughs out loud
Without any restrain
Deliriously happy
Or deranged from his pain
It’s difficult to say
Did we both have one bad day?
But I fight
For the Batman refuses to die
To the realm of chaos and lies
In Gotham City
Crime,
In a world that never sleeps
It’s so hard just to dream
In Gotham City
My utility belt
Ranging from Legos and Giz
Helps me take
The Riddler and his baffling quiz
Scarecrow terrifies, Harvey’s coin has one scarred side
But I wonder if within them good subsides
Maybe they’re not so different from me
Trying to make sense of reality
Broken hearts never mended with time
Loses too great for simple words to define
So I fight
For I won’t let that happen again
To all I will restore hope in mankind
In Gotham City
I am one with the dark, it’s my shield
But to darkness I’ll never yield
In Gotham City
You
You must know that I’ll always be there
For the beacon unites us in prayer
In Gotham City
In Gotham City
I looked over the rules again and it said the rhyming scheme should be a,b,a,b…I wasn’t sure if that was mandatory to be considered for the competition so I changed the song a bit (It doesn’t go with “White Houses”)
Smoke from the sewers drift into the air
Carelessly contented as we round the bend
Blinded by the full moon’s brilliant glare
Not knowing what awaits us is the beginning and end
Grasping at the hands that I hold dear
The shattering reports
Ringing cold in my ears
My world, gone assort
I shout to the heavens but it’s deaf to my cries
I fall to my knees for this sin I can never atone
I can’t save the light that fades away from their eyes
I feel so helpless facing all the unknown
And I vow
To the silent shadows of night
I will avenge justice somehow
I will become the Dark Knight
Putting on my mask so they’ll never suspect
Leaping off of buildings with emotion concealed
Striking fear in the felons and the ones I protect
Racing down the road in my batmobile
The Joker laughs
Ring loud like a bell
On a cheery behalf
Or from pain I can’t tell
I will fight wherever needed, in alleys and slums
Batman refuses to die
I will never succumb
To the realm of chaos and lies
My utility belt
Ranges from Legos and Giz
Many a time I have dealt
With Riddler and his baffling quiz
Scarecrow basks in terror
Harvey flips his coin to decide
More court trials than errors
Does any good in them subside?
Maybe they’re not so different from me
They’re sufferings equal or greater than mine
Trying to make sense of reality
Loses too great for words to define
But I take up my cowl
No matter how hard
I will fight for mankind
It will stay under guard
The dark is my shield
I’ll always be there
But to darkness I won’t yield
The beacon unites us in prayer
Hopefully I’m not too late. Hit me Giz, it’s Batman time!
This competition is afecting me…. (afecting me)
I really need to win a PSP….. (PSP)
Without some lego I may just lose my mind….
Show me the bat-sign…..
Hit me Giz it’s Batman time!
I looked over the songs I wrote and realized they were pretty dark, so I wrote another one that’s lighter in context. I’m sorry; I just really want that game and PSP lol. (This is in tune to Jennifer Saunders version of “Holding Out For A Hero”
Chaos and disorder
Plague the streets with crime
Mayhem is in order
Controlling all of Legokind
Isn’t there a Dark Knight?
Who’ll sew justice to attach the strewn?
Those who gaze into the sky night
See him silhouetted against the moon
I need a Lego
I’m holding on to a Lego who always does what is right
He can’t really talk so he can’t say hello
But he puts up a heck of a fight
I need a Lego
I’m holding on to a Lego who never accepts defeat
He doesn’t have thumbs but he delivers a blow
That knocks the bad guys right off their feet (off of their feet)
Somewhere in the city
Someone’s robbed the bank of studs
The burglars have no pity
And they leave out on a scud
Little do they know that
Someone watches them from out of the dark
An angel emerges in the guise of a bat
And hits them right out of the park
When the worlds of good and evil collide
When fear takes its toll far and wide
The Caped Crusader will arrive at your side
And he’ll turn the tide
When Joker so much as lets out a laugh
Before his malicious plans can unfold
Batman makes him reconsider his craft
In a clash that’s a sight to behold (a sight to behold 4x)
I need a Lego
I’m holding on to a Lego who detains those who irrupt
He’s got tons of Giz that he uses to show
Gotham does not belong to the corrupt
Oh I need a Lego
I’m holding on to a Lego who really defines
A courageous crusader, righteous knight, a real hero
A light in darkness that will forever shine
I’ve got a Batman Lego!
Bat-a-man (sung to the tune of ‘Better Man’ by Pearl Jam). This is my updated version, as I didn’t include any of the required lyrical components in my last entry.
BAT-A-MAN
Waiting, watching the sky, for that bat sign, to glow tonight
Help me, can’t take no more, I’m getting stabbed, but wait what’s that?
As he opens the door, I roll over
A lego man puts me on his shoulder
He flies and says he’s in love with me
I found my bat-a-man
He wears no colour, just black instead,
I found my bat-a-man
I found my bat-a-man…
Talking to himself, he says the bat cave needs some work…
When we’re back in his surroundings,
Shows me why he brought me in cause,
Alfred died, needs the place cleaned
Gets a broom, tells me ’start sweeping’
He lied and said he’s in love with me
Fooled by bat-a-man
He makes me wash the dishes and sinks,
Can’t stand bat-a-man!
Damn you bat-a-man
She hates him – she’ll find a way to make him pay
She’ll teach him – tell Gotham News, Batman is Bruce Wayne!
She lies and says she’s in love with him
Takes photos of bat-a-man
The news agreed on a hefty sum,
and so did gizmodo
Thank you bat-a-man!
Thank you bat-a-man!
I really hope the song based from “Holding Out For a Hero” isn’t too late to be considered; I emitted it around 10 to 11 p.m. Friday
I hope this one still counts
Sung to the tune of Travis – Quicksand
Give it away, give it away
You said you’d give it all away
You better not lie to me today
It doesn’t matter cos Batmans comin now
Inside his belt
Is my psp
Noone else is gonna beat these lyrics
Cos they are just the best
You can take me on today
The outcomes gonna be the same
And while batman visits me
And if only Giz could agree with me now
About my lyrics
They’re simply the best
Noone else is gonna beat these lyrics
Cos they are just the best
Lego Batman comin to my doorstep
It’s gona come my way
Give it away, maybe today
Just make sure it comes my way
Giz, it’s time for you to see
Even Batmans thinking of comin out
Out to meet me
Tonight at eight
Lego Batman comin to my doorstep
It’s gonna come my way
Thank you Giz, this has been a pleasure
I’ll see you another day
