[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!

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

Murder, murder -
Makes me 'ead spin!
Murder, murder -
Starts me drinkin'!

Bloody murder

In the night!"

[HYDE, spoken]
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 wot's-'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, spoken]

That's four in the last eight days!
It's London's latest craze!

[SECOND NEWSBOY]
This time 'e was in Perk Lane!
An' 'e may come back again!

[WOMEN]
Until the killers 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 matter who we're blamin'

There's gonna be
There's gonna be
There's gonna be a flamin'

Or 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!
