The Ripper Lyrics

You're in for surprise
You're in for a shock
In London town streets
When there's darkness and fireWhen you least expect me
And you turn your back
I'll attackI smile when I'm sneaking
Through shadows by the wall
I laugh when I'm creeping
But you won't hear me at allAll hear my warning
Never turn your back
On the ripperYou'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'In your back alley street
Is where we'll probably meet
Underneath a gas lamp

Where the air is cold and dampI'm a nasty surprise
I'm a devil in disguise
I'm a footstep at night
I'm a scream of the sightAll hear my warning
Never turn your back
On the ripper, the ripper, ripper
