> Queen Watevra Wa'Nabi to Batman before the song begins

"**Gotham City Guys**" is a song sung by Batman and Queen Watevra Wa’Nabi in *The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part*. In this song, Queen Watevra Wa’Nabi attempts to make Batman jealous of her "lover", Superman.

## Composition

The song is fairly fast, just like Not Evil, and is mainly sung by the Queen, with her minions providing a choir chanting. It also features Batman in the second stanza although he provides comments in other parts.

It is set to the key of E major, with five major flats, B, E, A, D and G, making it particularly challenging.

## Lyrics

[Intro]

Batman: *Oh great, more singing, right on time.*

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: *Listen Bruce.*

Batman: *Who's Bruce?*

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: *It's nothing personal* (Whoo!). (Whoah!) *It's just..*.

[Stanza 1]

I've dated men like you before and you're just not my type.

Ice Cream Cone: My type!

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: Never around during the day, only come out at night.

Ice Cream Cone: That's right!

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: Emotionally wounded, dark and broody all the time!

Susan: Boo hoo!

Hangin' around with clowns.

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi and Ice Cream Cone: I don't need that in my life!

[Pre-chorus 1]

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: I ain't Selina Kyle! I ain't no Vicki Vale! I was never into you, even when you were Christian Bale!

Batman: *I'm more of a Keaton guy myself.*

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: *Ooh! I loved him as Beetlejuice!*

[Chorus 1]

I'm just not into Gotham City guys!

Batman: *Well, yeah, we're flawed, but that's what makes us so relatable.*

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: I'm just not into guys who can't fly!

Batman: *I can fly!*

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: *The Batwing can fly!*

Rich boys with gadgets, are not my type!

Batman: *What IS your type?*

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: Kryptonian men are my kryptonite!

Batman: *GROSS!*

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: I'm just not into Gotham City guys!

[Batman main theme plays]

[Stanza 2]

Batman: *So what. You're not into me. I don't care, but like...listen up!*

You're clearly just confused!

Gotham dudes are the best!

We have deep manly voices and insanely ripped pecs!

We're Affleck-level hot!

And we're Oprah-level rich!

With George Clooney-level charm and Val Kilmer lips

We worked for our powers,

Cause we're self-made men

We didn't just get them from the sun

Like an entitled alien!

[Pre-chorus 2]

Go on one date with me and you'll change your mind!

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: Unsubscribe!

[Chorus 2]

I'm just not into Gotham City guys!

Batman: *Please, give me a chance!*

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: *No thank you! Hard pass!*

I'm just not into guys who don't wear tights!

Batman: I used to wear tights. Ask Adam West.

Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi: I'm looking for a husband, someone to share my crown.

And Gotham men are playboys who would never settle down!

Unlike other superheroes who are strong and not afraid,

of commitment and relationships,

I won't name any names!

Superman: Oh, hey Batman!

[Outro]

But I'll give you a hint!

He's made of steel and wears a red cape!
