casually looking for the theme song of sherlock from the bbc series, and stumbling upon this. and all i could think about was – holy crap, cumberbatch and freeman should do a cover. bloody hilarious!
Wow! I remember that episode - I think I even had it on tape at one point. While cheesy, it is actually a very clever and catchy song. Thanks for posting this!
Also, I have a few minor lyric corrections, too if you don't mind:
its "his evil past", not "his evil path"
and "don't let it touch you", not "don't let him touch you"
and at the end:
"I'll take care of Moriarty
he's only using you
so leave it to me
it's only elementary
and I'll be ready" and this last stanza is repeated.
@00708, I don't understant what you mean? Do you want to know who wrote the song? If so, I don't know. It is from the TV-episode, I only cut it out and put on youtube.
Thanks so much for posting this! I still remember it from years ago (would you believe the words to this song stuck in my head all that time?). This episode of "Fame" is what got me started reading Sherlock Holmes stories in the first place! :)
Why's that dead guy breathing?

Moriarty is not a murderous pickpocket (as shown here). He's the leader of an underground crime syndicate!

Sung as Watson puts his hand on Holmes' shoulder... Am I reading between the right lines?

I doubt that the person who wrote this ever read any actual Holmes stories (not the Final Problem anyway).
Nevertheless, goddamn is this catchy! I'll probably be walking around with this in my head for the rest of the week!

Great song,
but I think there are two mistakes in the text lyrics in the description.
in the fourth paragraph, line one, "true" should be "cruel",
and in paragraph five, line three, "an" should be "any"
but the song is great nonetheless ;D
