The Lyrics
Harold Shipman, doctor down the street
Harold Shipman, the doc you'd hate to meet
Harold Shipman
You won't believe it, but it's true
He'd come around and murder you
Mercy
Harold Shipman, hooked on Pethidine
Harold Shipman, a guy who wound up Britain's
Biggest killer
He'd pay a visit to your home
And stick a needle in your arm
Harold Shipman's morphine pile
Killed his patients for a while
Harold Shipman had a killing spree
Lots of women wound up dead
At the hands of "Doctor Fred"
Until he got caught out by his greed
Kathleen Grundy, he killed one night
And then her last will, he did rewrite
Harold Shipman, local doc from Hyde
Harold Shipman, lots of grannies died
Harold Shipman couldn't get away, OK
He was found guilty of fifteen deaths
And got questioned about the rest
Got life without parole
But he didn't take it well
Found him hanging in his cell
Yeah, let's hope he rots in Hell
O-oh
Harold Shipman
Harold Shipman, the doc you'd hate to meet
Harold Shipman
You won't believe it, but it's true
He'd come around and murder you
Mercy
Harold Shipman, hooked on Pethidine
Harold Shipman, a guy who wound up Britain's
Biggest killer
He'd pay a visit to your home
And stick a needle in your arm
Harold Shipman's morphine pile
Killed his patients for a while
Harold Shipman had a killing spree
Lots of women wound up dead
At the hands of "Doctor Fred"
Until he got caught out by his greed
Kathleen Grundy, he killed one night
And then her last will, he did rewrite
Harold Shipman, local doc from Hyde
Harold Shipman, lots of grannies died
Harold Shipman couldn't get away, OK
He was found guilty of fifteen deaths
And got questioned about the rest
Got life without parole
But he didn't take it well
Found him hanging in his cell
Yeah, let's hope he rots in Hell
O-oh

Nicely paced. 5-5-5. Now, who in the name of Stinkoman 20X6 is Harold Shipman? From what I can garner from the parody, he was some British doctor who got addicted to morphine & killed his patients during surgery because of it.
Close, but not quite there. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_shipman
He deserved what he did, he had it coming to him sooner or later . I
