I've made two of them, Evolution of Hustling Holmes and the Happy Birthday Sherlock Holmes card. Each time I post I have multiple comments where I'm reminded that I've left out one. The Guinness Book of World Records has consistently listed Sherlock Holmes as the "most portrayed fictional character" with over 70 actors to date, I can't do them all, so I do my faves. Thanks for the thank yous.

song parody by Karadin
from the musical Little Shop of Horrors


Lift up your head
Wash off that blood
Here, take my scarf
Wipe that gunpowder away
Show me your face
adorable as kittens
I know things were bad
But now they're okay

Suddenly SHERLOCK
Is standing beside you
You don't need a cane
Don't have to pretend
Suddenly SHERLOCK
Is here to provide you
thrills and deductions
SHERLOCK's your flatmate
(and probably insane)

[JOHN]
SHERLOCK never
Treats anyone kindly
Lestrade and his drugs bust
Mrs.Hudson behind the door
I met this Consulting Detective
And followed him blindly
He'd snap his fingers
I said (it's all) fine

Suddenly SHERLOCK
Is standin' beside me
He barks out orders
Always condescends
Suddenly SHERLOCK
Is here to provide me
near death experiences
(I might be his only friend)

[SHERLOCK]
Tell me this feeling lasts till forever
Tell me the boredom is now washed away

[JOHN]
Please understand heads in fridges
Are strange and unhygienic
For ex-army doctors
that's something to say

[SHERLOCK]
Suddenly SHERLOCK lifted you up
[JOHN]
Suddenly SHERLOCK showed me I can

[BOTH]
Learn to be once more
The soldier that's inside you
For brilliant madcap adventures
SHERLOCK's your man
