Strange Song - Werewolves of London...

Sweet Home Alabama, Werewolves of London or All Summer Long - Fry



I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand
Walking through the streets of Soho in the rain
He was looking for a place called Lee Ho Fook's
Gonna get a big dish of beef chow mein

Aaoooooo!

Werewolves of London!
Aaoooooo! (Repeat)

If you hear him howling around your kitchen door

Better not let him in
Little old lady got mutilated late last night
Werewolves of London again

Asoooooo!

Werewolves of London!
Aaoooooo! (Repeat)

He's the hairy-handed gent who ran amuck in Kent

Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair
Better stay away from him
He'll rip your lungs out, Jim
I'd like to meet his tailor

Aaoooooo!

Werewolves of London!
Aaoooooo! (Repeat)

Well, I saw Lon Chaney walking with the Queen

Doing the Werewolves of London
I saw Lon Chaney, Jr. walking with the Queen
Doing the Werewolves of London
I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's
And his hair was perfect

Aaoooooo!

Werewolves of London!
Aaoooooo! (Repeat)
Draw blood.


This is a weird song. The music is so very happy, and the lyrics says something quite different. Interesting as well as it appears to really be about the gay community in London at the time..
