i'm knox a famous sergeon
and i earn my daily bread
by studying cadavers
which are bodys not long dead
one day two swarve young gentlemen
appered within my view
i'm mr burke, i'm mr hare
how do you do?
these gents explained that their
acquaintence had just passed awey
it seemed the body'd only been
a goner for a day
excuse the curious offer
said hare or was it burke?
but would you care to slice this up
to see how corpses work?
well it's always a palaver
getting hold of a cadaver
so i said yes i'll ahve her
oh, it's a he!
this body taught me much about
what makes a person poorly
why some men live to 99
and some die prematurely
how these thing funtion perfectly
and others won't repair
how everything is, interlinked
oh what's that doing there?
'til one day there was nothing left
and all my work was spent
then burke and hare turned up again
my, how convenient!
another slab of fresh
human organs, bone and flesh
another gory sesh, excellent news
(laughs evily)
as time went on these kind men
brought me several guys and gals
my lab was choca-block
with all their freashly passed on pals
i paid them lots of money
bodies came from everywhere
u really are a busy mr burke
and mr hare
they seemed such cultured gentlemen
i never did suspect
that burke and hare were not so nice
i really should have checked
then one day a policeman came
asked if iv'e seen a chap
i hadn't, but days later
his corpes turned up in my lap
it seemed that these acquaintences
of burke and hare actully
were not their friends and
did not always die naturaly
burke and hare had mudered them
it was plain to see
then brought the corpses to my lab
and pocketed the fee
the two men were arrested
but one of them set free
poor burke was hanged
but hapily his corpse was sent to me
oh bit wiffy!
still much to learn
