JUDAS PRIEST LYRICS
"The Ripper" (1976 Single)
1. The Ripper
2. Victim of Changes
1. The Ripper
You're in for surprise
You're in for a shock, ahh
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"
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
2. Victim of Changes
Whiskey woman don't you know that you are driving me insane?
The liquor you give stems your will to live and gets right to my brain
Don't you know you're driving me insane?
You're tryin' to find your way through life
Tryin' to get some new direction
Another woman's got her man
She won't find no new connection
Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through
Take another look around, you're not going anywhere
You realize you're growing old and no-one seems to care
You're tryin' to find your way again
Tryin' to find some new...
Another woman's got her man
She won't find no new...
Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through
You bin foolin'
With some hot guy
I want to know
Why is it why
Get up, get out
You know you really blew it
I've had enough, I've had enough
Good God, pluck me
Once she was wonderful
Once she was fine
Once she was beautiful
Once she was mine, she was mine
Now change has come over her body
She doesn't see me anymore
Now change has come over her body
She doesn't see me anymore
Changes
Changes
Changes
Changes
Victim of changes
