IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT BATMAN DID NOT EXIST UNTIL THE MID 60’S SO THE ORIGINAL JINGLE MUST HAVE STARTED SOON AFTER THAT MAYBE LATE 60’S EARLT SEVENTIES START YOUR RESEZRCH THERE i heard the original version back in 1974 in RhodeIsland in nothing kingstown.

Its Jingle Bells, shotgun shells, santa claus is dead.
Rudolph took a .45 and shot him in theb head, Hey!
Barbie dolls, and the other dolls tried to save his life.
But G.I. Joe, the eskimo, stabbed him with a knife.
Circa 1990, Pismo Beach, CA

Jingle Bells, Batman smells,
Robin laid an egg,
Oh, what fun it is to ride,
In a beat up Chevrolet.

Sometimes we had this opening verse before the “chorus”

Dashing through the snow,
On a pair of broken skis,
O’er the hills we go,
Crashing into trees!
The snow is turning red,
I think I might be dead.
I woke up in a hospital
With stiches in my head!

After the “chorus” we had

Batman’s in the kitchen,
Robin’s in the hall,
Joker’s in the bathroom,
Peeing on the wall
Penguin’s on the potty,
His arms too short to wipe.
Catwoman’s in the litter box,
While Riddler smokes a pipe.

(Alternately “Penguni’s in the freezer, Alfred’s in the study, Catwoman’s in the litterbox, I think that’s everybody”). In the 90’s I heard from my nephews and nieces the “Batmobile lost a wheel” version. So what I did to entertain the little ones is do the first verse, the chorus I grew up with, the second verse, and then the second chorus I do the “Batmobile lost a wheel” version.

Whoops – “Robin laid an egg” was meant to be “Robin flew away” — of course, so that it rhymes with USA! I must have gotten my wires crossed somehow.

Batman Smells,
Robin laid an egg

He did a fart
Behind a kart
And blew up USA!

I remember hearing this on the playground; perhaps I was around 12 at the time?
So this was around 2000. Nottingham, UK (or Leeds)
