The Real Ripper - Kirsty MacColl

When youre out there lying in the sun

Hes the one who keeps his clothing on Youd never know him on a train or a bus

cos he looks just like the rest of us In the middle of the night its a different story

Dont let him catch you all alone

The real ripper

The real ripper

Wearing a dinner jacket

Ask anyone you meet and theyll say the same

Noone is quite sure of his name

Keep your hand on your heart but hes gonna get you

Hes gonna make you toe the line

Hes the … laden master of disguise

A bounce around the clock and turn away (?)

Ask anyone you meet and theyll say the same

Noone is quite sure of his name

The real ripper

The real ripper

Took all the books away

Keep your hand on your heart but hes gonna get you

Hes gonna make you toe the line
