Batman's got an attitude everybody takes him seriously
And
Superman never made any money well try to tell that to DC
All the other members of the Justice League
Say I have useless super powers and make fun of me
But I know that there will come a day
When they're gonna stare in slack jawed wonder as they hear me say

I am Aquaman and nobody better mess with me
I may be nothing to you but I am a king beneath the sea
Let's see you get by under water as well as I do on the ground
I am Aquaman and you better not mess around

There are days I swear I would rather have
The proportionate strength of a praying mantis
Then be the last lost noble prince
Of the undersea kingdom of Atlantis

Batman's got the Batmobile Diana's got her invisible jet
It seems like everybody else can fly even
Samurai but a stupid seahorse is all I get
Green Arrow's sharp but I couldn't be any duller
My orange costume's uglier than any other color
I'm not as tough as Batman or as cute as
Gleek
I'm a little taller than the Atom but smaller than
Apache Chief

Chorus

Clark Kent wouldn’t be the same if he didn’t have his Lois Lane
Green Arrow’s got his
Black Canary
Even millionaire Bruce Wayne has that thing on the side with his ward Dick Grayson
But there’s just one girl that I would marry

Batman signed a movie deal though you know he doesn't need the cash
And all the second-rate heroes get their own TV shows even the Pre-Crisis
Flash
But not me I guess that I don't rate
My comic book's been cancelled more than
Dr. Fate
I know that I'm no
Brainiac but I'm no fool
I know not even Peter David can make me cool

Chorus
