Lyrics Jack the Ripper - Motörhead

See into the future, see into the past
I gotta tell you what I'm seeing in the glass
Tall dark stranger, knocking at your door
Looking thru the window, it's you he's looking for
Don't be acting crazy, don't you cause a riot
Stand very still, keep very quiet
You'll never see the face of the man in the window
Your heart begins to raise
He's the one to spring you a surprise
Aaah, the ripper, master of disguise
See into the mind, see into the brain
Try to find the reasons that Jacky's out again
Slipping and sliding, don't even try to hide
Just like your shadow, breathing at your side
Don't give into panic, don't you run an' scream
Aaah, the ripper, haunting all your dreams
You'll never see the face of the man in the window
Heart begins to race
He's the one to spring you a surprise
Aaah, the ripper, master of disguise
Cold steel, whisper in the night
He'll be at your side, with a smile and a knife
It's seems like dreaming, moving in the dance
The last embrace you'll ever know, the violence of romance
Don't try to run, you'll trip and fall, you'd be a fool
He's right beside you and he can be so cruel
Stand O very still, your heart is beating like a drum
He turns his face towards you and the two move as one
And so the mystery continues to beguile
The ones who know can never tell you of his smile
See the faces shiver, see the figures move
How can you see? They move so fast, you're bound to lose
