Dr. Demento used to play this alot. When asked about this in an interview, Zappa said that he had to stop and start the tape many times when recording the vocal overdub, because Burt Ward could barely get through one sentence at a time without nearly falling on the floor from laughing so hard.
Burt Ward is kind of a Michael J. Fox of the 60s! Not that they look alike, but they dropped the same bomb on kids and teenagers, in their respective times.
It kind of stings a bit harsher if you know the comics. As an adult, he's actually sexually assaulted by two separate women. The first one even gets pregnant, and it can be his or a belong to a future version of him who isn't really him. But the same episode also has Barbara temporarily paralyzed.
@@cygil1 Even when the lighter and softer Dick Grayson is completely dispelled by Marv Wolfman, he still has subtext, just not with Batman. And then you have Devin Grayson in the 00s, who seems to go out of her way to have nearly every character suppose Batman and Robin have always been lovers. Poor Aquaman is like "Really, Ollie? I was just saying Garth's form is perfect."
It was called POP GOES THE JOKER, late in the second season - Joker poses as an artist to infiltrate that community in order to rip off a priceless art collection. He sets up a bogus art school for millionaires only. Bruce poses as a student and Robin tries to bust him, but ends up face first in a pile of clay, then tied to a giant mobile with swords all over it! Priceless stuff!
@Emo666Cali No, he wasn't gay. Adam, the major playa that he was, introduced Burt to a lot of women and caused Burt's divorce. As a matter of fact, Burt was a married man through much of the run of the series.
I mean, in the comics he wouldn't until the 80s, and it's actually part of a greater narrative of him striking on his own and becoming a man. By this point, DC had tried retiring him, but Marv Wolfman picked him up, dusted him off, and brought back the Teen Titans. Right afterward their teammate's demon father tried to invade Earth.
anybody else hear Frank at the end of this? It's kind of faint he's doing some talking in the background, at the very end of the song. - @bobNronsLPclub on Twitter
yes I can hear what sounds like Zappa in the background, it sounds like he's going "woaaaa, woaaaa" or something silly like that, something that you would hear in the background of we're only in it for the money.
I wrote a "newer" version of this called "Teen Titan I Love You." Guess who it's about? (Hint: Not Robin, nor Beast Boy! Another hint: The youngest member of the Justice League)
Cyborg isn't really the youngest member of the Justice League except in the New 52. The Flash (Wally West, specifically) is younger, and the aughts really has the four generations of heroes-the JSA, the JLA, the Titans, and Young Justice-kinda merge? And people prefer him with the Titans because of his comedic chemistry with Beast Boy. Stupid Snyderverse forcing itself into the comics in the form of the New 52.
Remember the show "Adam 12" ??? The taller good looking dude? Well, I have 3 older brothers and the 2nd oldest could be that guys twin brother! I have female cousins and a few neighbor women who came over to our house at Christmas time and force a kiss on him under the mistletoe !!! Really ! some times I wished I was my brothers twin !
I'm not xure of that - but someone sent me an audio file which I still have saved on my hard-drive. Send me your e-mail address if you'd like me to send it to you.
It's actually a leotard, like circus acrobats wear. Though you would've thought he would've modified that after everyone saw his, um, "bo staff". Holy crisis of infinite girth (and length as well).
HELL yeah, he LOVED women, lol, one woman was so obsessed, she stalked him, and tried to kill him XD that's not funny....But it serves him sleeping with a different woman every day
This was a television series from the 1960s, not a movie! Times were much simpler back in those days, & people weren't obsessed with seeing violence, sex, & gore on television like they are now
@@csu141 I mean, there is a lot of ho yay for Dick Grayson, but it's on the Teen Titans side of things more than the bat side. All he gets on the bat side is a kid who REALLY admires him and suddenly everyone's calling that kid "Best Robin! Best Robin!"

OMG!!!! I love robin! :)
"I made a gum wrapper chain!"
If I wrote that, I would DIE!!!!!
I LOVE ROBIN SO MUCH❤❤
I loved Burt Ward. I grew up in the 1970s. I am a boy.
As from 1:50 I had the same luxury problem when I was 21 years old.

The look of disgust on his face. The program makers certainly weren't shying away from the Batman/Robin angle, if you know what I mean.

Yes - you can hear him trying to stifle a laugh shen he says "taking this opportunity...".

Oh, you can believe it - anything and everything was possible back in 1967.
what has been seen cannot be unseen...
i love this vid. I love boy wonder!!!!!! :)
Gosh this is cute :)
Imagine if Burt read this letter and it concludes by saying
"Your biggest fan,
JACK"
Thank you Frank Zappa!
My dad actually found some old 1960's Batman & Robin costumes & every Halloween even with my little cosuins I'm always the boy wonder.
he is reading the mail he wrote to himself

ROBIN GOT LUCKY.LOL!

Burt ward was so hot. not as Robin but as dick Grayson. he was so cute.
@PiercedPikachu Thank you
One could think this as a sister song to "Batman Minding His Business".
I wish I looked like that in my 20's.
I did.
I did aswel as I was an athlete from 17 till 23 years old :-)
I do! I’m not in my twenties yet though.
Let's hope when Robin landed in the chewing gum, his identity didn't get out.
Welp when Cyborg landed in the chewing gum, his identity didn't get out. Why? Because that's his permanent look.
Frank Zappa wrote the music to this true fact
Like to milk the boywonder,so cute
bondage set? a girl after my own heart. :-)
very good
its me the boy wonder. greets robin
LOL!
Shannon and AlanR - just let me know if you'd like the audio file sent by e-mail.

I had to see this just to confirm it to myself. and dayummm he was hot back in the day!! At 5yrs old I had a mad crush on him too. :-)
And I'm 16 years old and I have a mad crush on Robin's fellow Teen Titans member Cyborg.
it kinda sounds like a Mothers song. bongos in the back ....... THANK YOU !!!...just a kid then....rockettebob in reno
At times it seemed that only Batman won the attention of ladies, but Robin had women who wanted him, too.

Oh, I'll just BET it was.
how about try the internet for your homework, boy wonder.
The internet didn't exist back then
Yeah, I know.
Somewhere Bruce Lee Cries
Which episode is it at 0:18?
The pilot of Batman 1966
Remember the show "Adam 12" ??? The taller good looking dude? Well, I have 3 older brothers and the 2nd oldest could be that guys twin brother! I have female cousins and a few neighbor women who came over to our house at Christmas time and force a kiss on him under the mistletoe !!! Really ! some times I wished I was my brothers twin !
He was a hottie in that show
King creepy as hell 😱😱 see joker so sexy I love 💘💘💘 ceaser Romero who I miss him
Cyborg is hot.
Glad it was cleared up that it was a girl writing!
LOL
LMFAOO Marky Mark and da infamous eddie Q ok
boy blunder @ 1.06!! haha
Que sorte do Robin ser rodeado por essas meninas tão lindas!!!
WHAT EPISODE IS AT 1:43
Leave it to Frank Zappa....
I'm not xure of that - but someone sent me an audio file which I still have saved on my hard-drive. Send me your e-mail address if you'd like me to send it to you.
You may be on to something there... I mean, if it was so "obvious", why would the writer bother to SAY it unless it was a RUSE!
It was the 1960s. It was a dumb time. I mean how does Tetsuwan Atom - Iron Armed Atom - get translated to Astro Boy?
Let's also hope he didn't wet his panties!
Robin--not Frank Zappa. No offense to Frank.
Does not know how to wear his Underwear Properly.... 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
It's actually a leotard, like circus acrobats wear.
Though you would've thought he would've modified that after everyone saw his, um, "bo staff". Holy crisis of infinite girth (and length as well).

Filme idiota!!!

To bad he was gay better luck next time girl's
Emo666Cali ......Not, good try.
Thanks for the informative post, Emo
@@csu141 I mean, there is a lot of ho yay for Dick Grayson, but it's on the Teen Titans side of things more than the bat side. All he gets on the bat side is a kid who REALLY admires him and suddenly everyone's calling that kid "Best Robin! Best Robin!"
