[Newsboy] Read about the 'ideous murder,
Profane, religious murder !
[First gentlemen] The poor old bishop,
What a shock !
[Street vendor] Seen walkin' wiv 'is daughter,
A moment prior to slaughter !
[Newsboy] The shepherd tendin'
to 'is flock !
[Crowd] 'e died in a London slum-
A slave to martyrdom-
'e died without complaint !-
'e should be made a saint !-
'e's gone back 'ome to god !-
It all seems very odd !-
Why should it be,
This mystery ?-
Murder, murder-
In the night air !
Murder, murder-
It's a nightmare !
Murder, murder-
It's a right scare,
Bloody murder
In the night !
Murder, murder-
Makes your heart thump !
Murder, murder-
Makes your nerves jump !
Murder, murder-
Makes your blood pump !
Bloody murder
In the night !
[Congregation] DONA EIS, REQUIEM
[Priest] Sweet death has taken
This brave
Man from us !
[Congregation] REQUIEM AETERNAM
[Priest] Friends, take what comfort
That you can from us !
[Congregation] DONA EIS DOMINE
[Hyde] General Glossop !
I'm happy to inform
you that you at
relieved of your
duties, sir. All of
them !
[A man] Look at this, another murder,
Just like the other murder !
That's poor old general
Glossop, dead !
[A boy] Last week the
bishop copped it !
The bloke what done
it 'opped it !
That feller must be
off 'is 'ead !
[Another crowd member] That's two in the
last four days !
This killer has fancy ways !
[A fourth] To kill outside St Paul's
Requires a lotta balls !
[A fifth] He hates the upper class !
[A sixth] He must be on 'is arse !
[Crowd] Who could he be ?
[The boy] Don't look at me !
[Crowd] " Bloody murder
in the night !
"
Murder, murder-
Doin' folks in-
Murder, murder-
In the worst sin !
Murder, murder
Has me screamin'
" Bloody murder
in the night !

Murder, murder-
Makes me blood thin !
Murder, murder-
Makes me' ead spin !
Murder, murder-
Starts me drinkin' !
Bloody murder
In the night !
In the night !
[Hyde] Bessie, my love...
you really should be
more careful...
wearing your real
diamonds out on the
street. You never
know whom you might
encounter !
[Upper and lower crust
on the street] London has a killer
on the loose !
Could be a gang !
Gotta get 'is 'ead
inside a noose !
The man must hang
[Crowd] Maybe his nerve
will fail him !-
They've gotta try
to nail him !-
They've gotta trail
an' jail him,
Now !
Murder !
No matter who we're blamin'
Till they pull wots
'is name in,
There's gonna be one flamin'
Row !
Murder, murder-
It's a curse, man !
Murder, murder-
It's perverse, man !
Murder, murder-
Nothing's worse than
Bloody murder
In the night !
[Hyde] Bad news from God, Teddy !
[First newsboy] Read about the worst
two murders - !
[Second newsboy] Much worse than the
first two murders !
[Crowd] That makes it murders
three and four !
(variously)
They've murdered dear
old Bessie !-
I hear extremely Messy !-
And poor old Archie
is no more !-
[Women] They say a lot of
blood and gore !
[All] That's four in the
last eight days !
It's London's latest craze !
[Second newsboy] This time 'e was
in park lane !
An 'e may come back again !
[Women] Until the killer's found
There's danger all around !
[Crowd] What can we do ?
What can we do ?
What can we do ?
We wish we knew !
[Crowd] Catchin' such a madman
could be hard !-
He'll kill !-
At will !-
Cos they're all so
thick at Scotland
Yard !-
No brains !-
No skill !-
[All] He'll kill us, if we let him !
They'd better go and get him !
I know a way to net him !-
How ?
Murder !
No metter who we're blamin'
Till they pull
wot's 'is name in,
There's gonna be,
There's gonna be,
There's gonna be a flamin'
Row !
Murder, murder-
On our doorstep !
Murder, murder-
So, watch your step !
Murder, murder-
Take one more step,
You'll be murdered
In the night !
Murder, murder-
Once there's one done-
Murder, murder
Can't be undone !
Murder, murder
Lives in London !-
Bloody murder
In the night !
In the night !
