This is bloody awesome
[Verse 1: "Sherlock" & "Lestrade"]
Nah, walk up to the scene like, "What up? I got a big coat!"
I'm so pumped about murders, I'm Sherlock (Oh!)
Dirt on the ring, she must have been naughty
Lestrade be like, "Damn! That's a cold dead body!"
[Verse 2: "Sherlock" & "John"]
Rollin' with a suitcase too, solved it like a piece of cake
Dressed in all pink, the killer made a big mistake (Oh!)
Draped in a white sheet, John sitting next to me
Probably should've washed this…
You wearing any pants?
No...
*Boing!*
But shit, I didn't wanna get dressed!
[Verse 3: "Sherlock"]
Typin' it, bloggin' it, Watson givin' me some compliments
Examinin' those sneakers someone else has been walkin' in (Oh!)
Body in the mortuary, I'm whipping and flogging it
The name is Sherlock Homes, address 221B Baker Street (Oh!)
[Verse 4: "Sherlock" & "John"]
I am gonna take the fall, I am gonna take the fall
No, for real, stay where you are
Goodbye, John
Sherlock!
Lazy silk robe and no house slippers
Nine-millimeter (*Gunshot*) handgun that I found digging (*Gunshot*)
Nah, walk up to the scene like, "What up? I got a big coat!"
I'm so pumped about murders, I'm Sherlock (Oh!)
Dirt on the ring, she must have been naughty
Lestrade be like, "Damn! That's a cold dead body!"
[Verse 2: "Sherlock" & "John"]
Rollin' with a suitcase too, solved it like a piece of cake
Dressed in all pink, the killer made a big mistake (Oh!)
Draped in a white sheet, John sitting next to me
Probably should've washed this…
You wearing any pants?
No...
*Boing!*
But shit, I didn't wanna get dressed!
[Verse 3: "Sherlock"]
Typin' it, bloggin' it, Watson givin' me some compliments
Examinin' those sneakers someone else has been walkin' in (Oh!)
Body in the mortuary, I'm whipping and flogging it
The name is Sherlock Homes, address 221B Baker Street (Oh!)
[Verse 4: "Sherlock" & "John"]
I am gonna take the fall, I am gonna take the fall
No, for real, stay where you are
Goodbye, John
Sherlock!
Lazy silk robe and no house slippers
Nine-millimeter (*Gunshot*) handgun that I found digging (*Gunshot*)
[Verse 5: "Sherlock" & "Moriarty"]
He had a pair of glasses, I stole his pair of glasses
I stole some eyeliner, then I drew a mustache (Oh!)
"Hello, hello, my ace man, my Mellow!"
John ain't happy about my resurrection, hell no (Oh!)
I could take some Pro Wings, search them good, bingo!
Moriarty be like, "Aw, he solved the Velcros" (Oh!)
[Chorus: "Sherlock"]
I'm gonna solve a case
Only got John Watson as my partner (Oh!)
I–I–I'm huntin', lookin' for a come-up
This is bloody awesome
I'm gonna solve a case
Only got John Watson as my partner (Oh!)
I–I–I'm huntin', lookin' for a come-up
This is bloody awesome
[Verse 6: "Sherlock"]
Whatcha knowin' about rockin' some curls on your noggin?
Whatcha knowin' about wearin' a deerstalker? (Oh!)
I'm digging, I'm digging
I'm searching for pink luggage
One man's trash, that's another man's come-up (Oh!)
There's The Woman, who's seductive
She's naked and defrocked
Stole her phone, the code was SHERLOCKED (Uh!)
I'm at the flat, you can find me at (Baker Street)
Any, any client, I'm accepting at (Baker Street)
He had a pair of glasses, I stole his pair of glasses
I stole some eyeliner, then I drew a mustache (Oh!)
"Hello, hello, my ace man, my Mellow!"
John ain't happy about my resurrection, hell no (Oh!)
I could take some Pro Wings, search them good, bingo!
Moriarty be like, "Aw, he solved the Velcros" (Oh!)
[Chorus: "Sherlock"]
I'm gonna solve a case
Only got John Watson as my partner (Oh!)
I–I–I'm huntin', lookin' for a come-up

Only got John Watson as my partner (Oh!)
I–I–I'm huntin', lookin' for a come-up

Whatcha knowin' about rockin' some curls on your noggin?
Whatcha knowin' about wearin' a deerstalker? (Oh!)
I'm digging, I'm digging
I'm searching for pink luggage
One man's trash, that's another man's come-up (Oh!)
There's The Woman, who's seductive
She's naked and defrocked
Stole her phone, the code was SHERLOCKED (Uh!)
I'm at the flat, you can find me at (Baker Street)
Any, any client, I'm accepting at (Baker Street)
[Verse 7: "Sherlock" & "Mycroft"]
Your hubby, your aunty, your grandpa, your bunny
I took that "Bloody Guardsman" case, secondhand, solved it in my Mind Palace
"The Hollow Client" that was solved in my Mind Palace
Serial killers, oh it's Christmas in my Mind Palace
They be like, "Oh, my brother's a psychopath"
I'm like, "Yo, a high functioning sociopath"
Limited edition, let's do some simple deduction
The Van Buren Supernova, that painting is a fake, bitch!
[Verse 8: "Sherlock" & "John"]
Damn!
I call that getting swindled and tricked
Damn!
I call that the Science of Deduction (Oh!)
That club was hella dough
But searching for a clue while intoxicated in this room is a hella don't (Oh!)
Think hard, let's play a game—a game of murder
Trying to wake me from my drugs, and you hella won't (Oh!)
[Pre-Chorus: "Sherlock" & "John"]
Man, you hella won't
Sherlock, cluin' for looks
Yeah-hahaha!
[Chorus: "Sherlock"]
I'm gonna solve a case
Only got John Watson as my partner (Oh!)
I–I–I'm huntin', lookin' for a come-up
This is bloody awesome (Oh!)
I'm gonna solve a case
Only got John Watson as my partner (Oh!)
I–I–I'm huntin', lookin' for a come-up
This is bloody awesome (Oh!)
[Bridge: "Sherlock" & "John"]
You know the game is on
I look incredible
I'm in this big ass coat
From that flat, 221B
You know the game is on (Damn right!)
I look incredible (Come on, man!)
I'm in this big ass coat (Big ass coat!)
From that flat, 221B (Let's go!)
[Chorus: "Sherlock"]
I'm gonna solve a case
Only got John Watson as my partner (Oh!)
I–I–I'm huntin', lookin' for a come-up
This is bloody awesome (Oh!)
I'm gonna solve a case
Only got John Watson as my partner (Oh!)
I–I–I'm huntin', lookin' for a come-up
This is bloody awesome (Oh!)
I'm gonna solve a case
Only got John Watson as my partner (Oh!)
I–I–I'm huntin', lookin' for a come-up
This is bloody awesome (Oh!)
