Intro
I saw a were-wolf with a
Chi-nese men-u in his hand__
walk-ing through the streets
of__ So-ho in the rain.
He was look-ing for a place
called Lee Ho Fook's.
Gon-na get a big dish
of beef chow mein.
If you hear him howl-ing a-round
your kitch-en door,__
you bet-ter not
let him in.
Lit-tle old la-dy got
mu-ti-lat-ed late last night,
Were-wolves of Lon-don a-gain.
He's the hairy-headed gent,
who ran a-muck in Kent.___
Late-ly he's been over-heard
in May-fair.
Bet-ter stay a-way from him.
He'll rip your lungs out, Jim.
(Huh!) I'd like to meet his tailor,
Well, I saw Lon Cha-ney
walk-ing with the Queen,
Do-ing the were ' wolves__ of London.__
I saw__ Lon Cha-ney Ju-nior___
walk-ing with the Queen, (uh!)
do-ing the were - wolves of Lon-don.
I saw a were-wolf drink-ing a
pi-na co-la-da at Trad-er Vic's
And his hair was per-fect.
Outro
of Lon-don (Huh!)
Draw blood.
