|
I remember it was late one night |
|
in the middle of a dream |
|
woke up in a pool of sweat |
|
thought I heard a scream |
|
Ran over to the window sill |
|
stuck my head out for a peek |
|
Dressed in black was a man I didn't recognise |
|
running down my back street |
|
My heart skipped a beat |
|
Chorus (2x): |
|
You better watch out, there's a stranger in town |
|
You better watch out when he comes around |
|
Don't make a sound |
|
The morning paper and the head-lines read:Danger to the queen |
|
Buckingham Palace better tighten things up |
|
The son of a bitch is mean. |
|
Vendors on the corner just doin' their job |
|
acting like nothing's new |
|
Scotland Yard's still looking for him |
|
but he doesn't leave |
|
a single clue |
|
Chorus (2x) |
|
You better watch out.. |
|
Who's this man who fell out of the sky? |
|
What's he done and where's he live? |
|
How can a man who's a criminal be a hero to the kids? |
|
The old couple swear that the Riper's back |
|
they say it's him all right. |
|
The young girl says it's Jesus and he won't be back again |
|
tonight |
|
I wonder who's right ? |
|
Chorus |
|
You better watch out... |
