You're in for surprise |
|
You're in for a shock |
|
In london town streets |
|
When there's darkness and fog |
|
When you least expect me |
|
And you turn your back |
|
I'll attack |
|
I smile when I'm sneaking |
|
Through shadows by the wall |
|
I laugh when I'm creeping |
|
But you won't hear me at all |
|
All hear my warning |
|
Never turn your back |
|
On the ripper |
|
You'll soon shake with fear |
|
Never knowing if I'm near |
|
I'm sly and I'm shameless |
|
Nocturnal and nameless |
|
Except for \"the ripper\" |
|
Or if you like \"jack the knife\" |
|
Solo (glenn) |
|
Any back alley street |
|
Is where we'll probably meet |
|
Underneath a gas lamp |
|
Where the air's cold and damp |
|
I'm a nasty surprise |
|
I'm a devil in disguise |
|
I'm a footstep at night |
|
I'm a scream of the fright |
|
All hear my warning |
|
Never turn your back |
|
On the ripper... the ripper... the ripper |
