the Ripper, Jack the Ripper.

When he walks down the streets to every girl he
meets,

he
says, is your name Mary Blood ? Uaaaaaaah!

When she
walks down the streets, he's never far behind,

with his little black bag and his one track mind,
the Ripper, Jack the Ripper.

Well, he
really catches up when the lights go down,
