In the Victorian era,
A famous stranger was born
With a disturbed mind
Uncontrollable narcissism
Who played a game called death
On the polluted roads of Whitechapel
That would influence the art of crime.
As a shadow in the darkness
He wandered in the darkness among the mist
Of a London as black as himself.
His contempt for whores
At a time when everything was done to survive
He invoked terror in every corner of the city
Chasing the grotesque unknown murder.
As a shadow in the darkness
He wandered in the darkness among the mist
Of a London as black as himself
Tearing at the flesh of sinful women
Silenced by every drop of blood spilled.
As a shadow in the darkness
He wandered in the darkness among the mist
Of a London as black as himself.
His contempt for whores
At a time when everything was done to survive
He invoked terror in every corner of the city
Chasing the grotesque unknown murder.
"Dear boss,
I love my work
My knife's is so nice and sharp
You will soon hear of me
With my funny little games.
Grand work the last job was
I gave the lady no time to squeal.
The next job I do
I shall clip the ladys ears off
And send to the police officers
Just for jolly.
No luck yet, they say I'm a doctor now
HA-HA....
Good luck, yours truly
Jack the Ripper. "
Greed for recognition
Tearing up all the sluts he could
The joy of seeing the blood gushing out
Smiling and joking with those who chased him
It was all a pleasurable fascination
Mutilation, flagellation, gutting
To be the machete in the next day.
As a shadow in the darkness
He wandered in the darkness among the mist
Of a London as black as himself.
The master of mystery dressed in black
His identity is unknown till' nowadays
Wandered freely among the malicious
In three signed letters and five murders
Everyone was a suspect but they never saw him...
As a shadow in the darkness
He wandered in the darkness among the mist
Of a London as black as himself.
His contempt for whores
At a time when everything was done to survive
He invoked terror in every corner of the city
Chasing the grotesque unknown murder.
