lyrics

The Stranger

The fog enshrouds the street
Like the mists of time
The stranger walks amongst us
Plotting his next crime

His mind's a nest of snakes
Twisting and entwined
With a deep abiding hate
A coal seam set on fire

They fear him in Whitechapel
Black trail of gory deeds
The Yard couldn't catch him
He's the slippriest of breeds

Headlines read the ripper
Perhaps Dr. Tumblety
But they will never catch him
Cause he's got a time machine

Murders sell the papers
And blood it always leads
Spawns shouts and cries for justice
Cause violence always feeds

These souls we lay to rest
Can never find their peace
They haunt us with their stirrings
Their cries will never cease

So call him Jack the Ripper
Call him Genghis Khan
Call him Adolph Hitler
Call him Mao Zedong

The Stranger sails time's river
He comes to every age
And people sing his praises
When he strides upon the stage

He's the stranger
He's the stranger
