Letra da Música: The Admirable Teachings Of Burke & Hare - General Surgery

Exhume to investigate
Reflect on corpse criteria
The perfect specimen, suitably fresh
Untouched by disfiguring trauma


The grave robbing business
A lucrative offence


Appropriate subjects in shortage
Mucopurulent stiffs refused
Gaseous corpses discharging pus
Unacceptable for medical purpose


Create your own cadaver
Deliver the recently dead


Defile and disinter the freshly deceased
Inadequate to meet the growing needs
Furtively smother the sacrificial mark
A fine cadaver to pride the anatomy slab


A lethal business venture
Anatomical counterfeiting
A murderous vocation


Cadavers fermented to gunk
Entirely inappropriate
likewise the crushed and gored remains
of bloody industrial mishaps


Efficient body snatchers
Reap the harvest of death's mailing


Defile and disinter the freshly deceased
Inadequate to meet the growing needs
Furtively smother the sacrificial mark
A fine cadaver to pride the anatomy slab
