Detective 27 Lyrics

His house he calls the batcave
He's sworn to secrecy
With comic books and videos
He lives his fantasy
Detective 27
Detective 27
In darkest depth of night
With full moon shining bright
He takes the mantle of the bat
Detective 27 at last
Detective 27
Detective 27
Shadow of the bat
Known his mind
And where it's at
A normal life will never be
For a lonely man inside a dream
Fighting for the cause of justice
Egendary in his mind
Protector of the innocent
He's waiting for his time
Detective 27

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
