Spring Heeled Jack |
Upward he shoots |
By the springs on his boots |
Like an inverted angel |
We’ve been afraid of this terrible |
Strange, elusive monster for years |
It seems to be superstitious lunacy |
But in fact when things go black |
Old Spring Heeled Jack appears |
I hear the sound |
Of him bounding around |
On the rooftops of London |
Leaving the people bewildered and stunned |
And, on occasion, aflame |
No sooner than unsuspecting Englishmen |
Turn their backs, the wretch attacks |
And Spring Heeled Jack’s his name |
I doubt that it’s those clever brats in college |
And the Marquess of Waterford denies all knowledge |
And people in the area reek of mass hysteria… |
But, admit you must, that it is just enough to scare ya' |
And you scream when he draws |
Out a handful of claws |
And a blue breath of fire |
Then disappears leaping higher and higher |
As if lighter than air |
Time marches on |
Now it seems as though he’s gone |
This day lacks tales of his acts |
But don’t relax |
For Spring Heeled Jack’s still there |
