Lyrics[]
Habeas corpus, habeas corpus.
Trust us to habeas corpus.
A nice wet warm body
Is a lovely QED.
There is no magic cleverer
Than to abra-cadaver-er.
It’s a jolly thing to see
Someone freshly RIP.
We’ll send you a letter-a,
Yours truly et cetera.
'Cause we really think it’s grand
To have a corpse to hand.
Habeas corpus, habeas corpus.
Trust us to habeas corpus.
