Werewolves of London Lyrics

[00:20.26] I saw werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand
[00:25.08] Walking through the streets of SoHo in the rain
[00:29.89] He was looking for the place called Lee Ho Fooks
[00:34.18] For to get a big dish of beef chow mein
[00:38.70] Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
[00:43.73] Ah-hoo
[00:48.31] Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
[00:53.01] Ah-hoo
[00:57.29] You hear him howling around your kitchen door
[01:02.41] You better not let him in
[01:06.65] Little old lady got mutilated late last night
[01:10.96] Werewolves of London again
[01:16.25] Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
[01:20.95] Ah-hoo
[01:25.68] Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
[01:30.53] Ah-hoo, huh
[01:34.13]
[01:52.42] He's the hairy handed gent who ran amok in Kent
[01:57.03] Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair
[02:02.08] You better stay away from him, he'll rip your lungs out Jim
[02:06.94] Huh, I'd like to meet his tailor
[02:11.70] Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
[02:16.52] Ah-hoo
[02:21.14] Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
[02:25.98] Ah-hoo
[02:30.47] Well, I saw Lon Chaney walking with the Queen
[02:34.95] Doin' the werewolves of London
[02:39.80] I saw Lon Chaney Jr. walking with the Queen, uh
[02:44.03] Doin' the werewolves of London
[02:48.98] I saw a werewolf drinkin' a piña colada at Trader Vic's
[02:53.76] His hair was perfect
[02:58.35] Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
[03:06.33] Hey draw blood
[03:07.56] Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
[03:14.54]
