"In March of 1995 I ran into Adam West at the Television and Radio Museum of Broadcasting's salute to "BATMAN" at the Director's Guild in Los Angeles. I reminded him that, as of March 1, 1995, we had known each other fifteen years. Adam shook his head in disbelief and said, "Wally, has it really been that long?" - Wally Wingert
 

The Lyrics to "ADAM WEST"

The Penguin and his ten goons are plotting in a back room
POW! CRASH! BOOM! BAM! In leaps the Batman
Making life safe again for all the Gotham citizens
He's so bitchin', he's so brave, it's back to the Batcave
He's got cool and savoir-faire, in his cape and cowl and his grey underwear
Who is the hero that we like best?
Gotta be the Batman, gotta be Adam West! Adam West!
I always cheer, I always squeal when he cries out "To the Batmobile!"

Commissioneer's on the Batphone, talking to the duo

Joker has escaped again they've just learned
Gotta rev it up, rev it up, emergency Bat turn
Each bad guy, he always gets-How does he stay dry? He never sweats
Which anti-perspirant does he like best?
Gotta ask the Batman, gotta ask Adam West! Adam West! Adam West!
You can have your Mr. Spock, you can have your Superman
You can have your Ronald Reagan, you can be an Elvis fan!
Sure they're heroic, sure they astound
But they can't hold a candle to the Bat-test guy around!
You see him at conventions and shopping malls
Meeting all his fans, he's sure got... guts
I comb the TV Guide for Batman fests.
Tunin into Batman, tunin' into Adam West! Adam West! Adam West! Adam West!
I'll get myself a Batsuit, then  I'll be lookin' real cute
I'll somersault all over town, I'll find Catwoman, we'll get down
I'll build my arms and pad my chest, so I can look like Adam West
He'll be the hero of the nation, for a zillion generations
He's got cool and savoir-faire, in his cape and cowl and his grey underwear
Who is the hero that we like best?
Gotta be Batman, gotta be Adam West! Adam West! Adam West!
SPOKEN: Naturally you didn't know I was wearing my special, super thermal B long underwear.
