Spring Heeled Jack

from No Happy Endings by The Hangmen

/

lyrics

Is that smile due to infection?
He can jump a mile in any direction.
Better watch the skies as you walk the streets, with flashing eyes his taloned claws clutch out for your heartbeats.
Spring Heeled Jack…out there on the rooftops laughing at your back.
Spring Heeled Jack…you could wait a hundred years but he’ll be back.

Old ones remember, can’t understand how he looks the same.
Glowing eyes like embers, licking faces with a hot blue flame.
A figure from their childhood, a scourge of men.
Their bodies die knowing that he’ll keep leaping back again.

He gives chapter and verse, intently as a curse, you can wait a hundred years but he’ll be back.
