Ah, the ripper master of disguise
The last embrace you'll ever know, the violence of romance
Don't be acting crazy don't you 'cause a riot
Stand very still, keep very quiet
Heart begins to race
Slipping and sliding don't even try to hide
Of the man in the window
Of the man in the window
He's right beside you and he can be so cruel
It's seems like dreaming, moving in the dance
The ones who know can never tell you of his smile
And so the mystery continues to beguile
He's the one to spring you a surprise
You'll never see the face
See the faces shiver, see the figures move
He turns his face towards you and the two move as one
Stand oh, very still your heart is beating like a drum
Looking through the window, it's you he's looking for
He'll be at your side, with a smile and a knife
He's the one to spring you a surprise
Ah, the ripper, haunting all your dreams
Heart begins to race
Don't try to run, you'll trip and fall, you'd be a fool
Just like your shadow, breathing at your side
Cold steel, whisper in the night
You'll never see the face
Try to find the reasons that Jacky's out again
See into the mind, see into the brain
Ah, The ripper master of disguise
Tall dark stranger, knocking at your door
Don't give into panic, don't you run an' scream
