Lyrics Killer on the Loose - Manfred Mann's Earth Band, Chris Thompson

Killer on the Loose

Fear on the streets, panic in the alley
You mustn’t walk alone tonight
Blood on the wall like a river cuts a valley
The victim is an awful sight
There’s a killer on the loose, knows just what he’s doing
He’s built around a heart of fire
A killer on the loose, lurking in the shadows
Lurking in the shadows
Nobody knows exactly how he looks
But a picture’s stamped on everyone’s mind
You never see his face, attacks from the back
You better watch out behind
There’s a killer on the loose, knows just what he’s doing
Evidence is hard to find
A killer on the loose, hidden in the darkness
There’s a killer on the loose, knows just what he’s doing
He’s built around a heart of fire
Somebody screams that there’s a killer on the loose
