Macabre - Jack The Ripper (Identity Unknown) lyrics

Dear boss, I keep on hearing

that the police have caught me

but they won't fix me just yet

I have laughed

when they looked so clever

and talk about being

on the right track

That joke about leather apron

gave me real fits

I am down on whores

and I shan't quit ripping them

till I do get buckled

grand work the last job was

I have the lady no time to squeal

And I want to start again

you will soon learn of me

with my funny little games

I saved some of the proper red stuff

in a ginger beer bottle over the last job

To write with but it went thick

like glue

and I can't use it

Red ink is fit enough I hope

ha ha

the next job I do

I shall clip the ladies ears off

and send them to police officers

just for jolly

Wouldn't you?

Keep this letter back

till I do a bit more work

then give it out straight

my knives so nice and sharp

I want to get back to work right away

if I get a chance

Good luck!

Yours truly,

Jack the Ripper

Don't mind me given the trade name
