You're in for suprise
You're in for a shock
In London town streets
When there's darkness and fire
When you least expect me
And you turn your back
I'll attack

Smile when I'm sneacking
Though shadows by the wall
I laugh when I'm creeping
But you won't hear me at all

(Chorus)
All hear my warnin'g
Never turn your back
On the ripper

You'll soon shake with fear
Never knowing i"f I'm near
I'm sly and I'm shameless
Nocturnal and nameless

Except for the ripper
Or if you like
Jack the knife

Any back alley street
Is where we'll probably meet
Underneath a gas lamb
Where the air's cold and damp

I am a nasty surprise
I'm a devil in disguise
I'm a footstep at night
I'm a scream of the fright

(Chorus)

The ripper
The ripper
Aaahhhhhh
