I believe the cliche you are referring to is "bats in the belfry." A belfry is a bell tower, commonly located on the topmost part of buildings, namely churches. Bats commonly fly around them in their erratic fashion. To say one has "bats in his belfry" is to say he is a bit batty, or considered to be somewhat crazy.
