TUNESMITH TUESDAY - "Werewolves of London" by Warren Zevon


Werewolves Of London

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

Ah-ooo, Werewolves of London
Ah-ooo
Ah-ooo, Werewolves of London
Ah-ooo

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

Ah-ooo, Werewolves of London
Ah-ooo
Yah-ooo, Werewolves of London
Ah-ooo

He's the hairy-handed gent who ran amuck in Kent
Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair
You better stay away from him
He'll rip your lungs out, Jim
I'd like to meet his tailor

Ah-ooo, Werewolves of London
Ah-ooo
Ah-ooo, Werewolves of London
Ah-ooo

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
His hair was perfect

Ah-ooo, 
Werewolves of London
Draw blood

Ah-ooo, Werewolves of London
