In Gotham City, there's a man that we all know
He's the master of puzzles, he makes the city go slow
With every riddle he poses, he causes chaos and fear
He's the Riddler, and he's always near
His crimes are complex, his motives hard to see
He challenges the Dark Knight, Batman will never be free
With his cane in hand, he's always one step ahead
The Riddler's intellect, is something to dread
From the first riddle to the last, he never disappoints
His mind is sharp, his puzzles never disjoint
Each clue is a challenge, a chance to prove your worth
But beware, his puzzles often lead to hurt
The Riddler is an enigma, a man few understand
His schemes and plots are feared throughout the land
He seeks to prove his worth, to be the best of all
But it's not all about winning, his ego can make him fall
Despite his cunning ways, the Riddler is not alone
His allies and henchmen, make Gotham their new home
From Catwoman to Two-Face, the criminals unite
The Riddler's plans are formed, in the shadows of the night
But in the end, the Riddler's downfall comes to be
His flaws and ego, become his biggest enemy
Though his puzzles were hard, his mind was not as sharp
The Riddler's end was near, soon to depart
So here we are, with the Riddler defeated at last
But his legacy of chaos, will forever last
His puzzles and riddles, will always be a part
Of the city he loved, but tore apart.
