lyrics

The fog rolls in
It's time for sin
Steal your family jewels from the tower of London
Cause nothing goes down in this town without my say so
The sound and the fury for the pound and the peso
Face like an eagle with a bald head to match
All I do is illegal and I'll never be catched
Catched is not a word but caught didn't rhyme
Crimes against English; the Napoleon of crime

I murdered a police horse
You couldn't catch me with your whole police force
You'll never stop my crime

Consulting detective? I'm a professor
And I'll never confess, I don't need a confessor
Just know I'm the best and that you are my lesser
It's a good thing, Holmes, your roommate's a physician
When it comes to murder I'm a mathematician
Me plus you equals death, that's just simple addition
And you'll fall at the falls for your final mission
Cause my cane is a gun
And I murder for fun
The lemon to your lime
The parsley to your thyme
The Anti-Holmes, the Napoleon of crime

I murdered a police horse
You couldn't catch me with your whole police force
You'll never stop my crime

I stabbed a baby
And I slapped an old lady
Blew up Scotland Yard and I gave Toby rabies
I defeated Picard and I wasn't even real
I outsmarted Data and he can't even feel
At best you'll hope to take but one of my pawns
While I'm taking your queen, keep her moaning till dawn
I have a brother named James and another brother James
Will all have the same name, we're all named the same
But my name shall echo through out all of time
Professor James Moriarty, the Napoleon of crime

The Bushwick Book Club Brooklyn, New York

We started in January 2009 playing songs written in response to Kurt Vonnegut's Breakfast of Champions. We haven't stopped since. We've written & performed songs inspired by everything from "On The Origin of Species" to Dr. Seuss to Raymond Carver. There are BBCs popping up nationwide now. Bushwick Book Club Seattle started in 2010 & is run by Geoff Larson. Our nerdy dare-devilry knows no bounds. ... more
