Stranger in Town

[Verse 1]

I remember it was late one night

In the middle of a dream

Woke up in a pool of sweat

Thought I heard a scream

Ran over to the window sill

Stuck my head out for a peek

Dressed in black was a man I didn't recognize

Running down my back street

My heart skipped a beat

[Chorus]

You better watch out

There's a stranger in town

You better watch out

There's a stranger in town

You better watch out

When he comes around

Don't make a sound

[Verse 2]

Got the morning paper and the headlines read:

Danger to the queen

Buckingham Palace better tighten things up

The son of a bitch is mean

Vendors on the corner just doin' their job

Acting like nothing's new

Scotland Yard's still looking for him

But he doesn't leave a single clue

What can they do?

[Chorus]

You better watch out

There's a stranger in town

You better watch out

There's a stranger in town

You better watch out

When he comes around

Don't make a sound

[Verse 3]

Who's this man who fell out of the sky?

What's he done and where's he live?

How can a man who's a criminal

Be a hero to the kids?

The old couple swear that the Ripper's back

They say it's him all right

The young girl says it's Jesus

And he won't be back again tonight

I wonder who's right

[Chorus]

You better watch out

There's a stranger in town

You better watch out

There's a stranger in town

You better watch out

When he comes around

You better watch out

There's a stranger in town

You better watch out

There's a stranger in town

You better watch out

When he comes around

Don't make a sound
