the ripper cover

Iced Earth

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

I smile when I m sneaking
Through shadows by the wall
I laugh when I m creeping
But you won t hear me at all

All hear my warning
Never turn your back
On the ripper

You 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

[SOLO (Glenn)]

Any back alley street
Is where we ll probably meet
Underneath a gas lamp
Where the air s cold and damp
I m a nasty surprise
I m a devil in disguise
I m a footstep at night
I m a scream of the fright

All hear my warning
Never turn your back
On the ripper...the ripper....the ripper
