The Modern Mash
(a parody of "The Monster Mash" by Bobby Pickett)
I was watching Sherlock Holmes late one night
When my eyes beheld a wondrous sight
There were cars and airplanes, the London Eye
And suddenly, to my surprise
He did the mash
He did the modern mash
The modern mash
It was a cyber smash
He did the mash
It caught on in a flash
He did the mash
He did the modern mash
From the laboratory in dear old St. Barts
Where the partnership in all its glory starts
Sherlock asked John to make a loan
To send a text upon an iphone
They did the mash
They did the modern mash
The modern mash
It was a cyber smash
They did the mash
It caught on in a flash
They did the mash
They did the modern mash
Moriarty was having fun
Shoop shoop waaooo
his party had just begun
Shoop shoop waaooo
but lost his killer cabbie
To John and his smoking gun.
A nicotine patch helped Sherlock think
As he solved the case of "A Study in Pink."
Surveillance cameras held the clue:
Big Brother Mycroft is watching you!
They did the mash
They did the modern mash
The modern mash
It was a cyber smash
They did the mash
It caught on in a flash
They did the mash
They did the modern mash
Way out in Hollywood, Downey cussed
Seems he was troubled by all this fuss.
Said, "My little film wasn't all that bad!
Whatever happened to my sequel deal with Brad?"
It's now the mash!
It's now the modern mash.
The modern mash
And it's a cyber smash
It's now the mash
It's caught on in a flash
It's now the mash
It's now the modern mash
Now everything's cool; there are millions of fans
And the modern mash is the hit of the land.
For us, the viewers, this mash was meant to
Tell the BBC folks get on Season Two!
Then we can mash
Then we can modern mash
The modern mash
And do the cyber smash
Then we can mash
We'll catch on in a flash
Then we can mash
Then we can modern mash!
Waaooo...
Shoop shoop waaooh...
