Jack the Ripper

[Intro — Soft, elegant, almost whispered]
Good evening, my dear, what a pleasure to meet,
Allow me to welcome you here to the street.
A gentleman’s manners, a courteous smile,
I fear you may find me quite strange after a while.
Now, please, take a seat, let us speak like old friends,
Though I must confess, I foresee how this ends.
For beneath this fine coat and these words of delight,
There’s a shadow that dances throughout the night.
[Verse 1 — Smooth flow]
I bow with respect, keep my posture refined,
A most charming exterior, a curious mind.
My vocabulary polished, my intentions obscure,
With a smile so sincere, who could question its purity?
Oh, sir, do forgive me, I’m terribly rude,
To interrupt your grand entrance and spoil your good mood.
But the city has taught me what gentlemen hide,
That the darkest of secrets wear virtue outside.
I admire your courage, your strength, and your pride,
Such admirable qualities, difficult to hide.
Yet a king may command, and a warrior may fight,
But a fox wins the game by deceiving the sight.
[Hook — Powerful, theatrical]
Please, after you, my distinguished foe,
There are so many things that you ought to know.
A gentleman smiles as the curtains descend,
And the finest deception is played to the end.
Would you kindly observe? Would you kindly beware?
There is elegance hidden in the cold midnight air.
With a tip of my hat and a voice calm and low,
I shall show you a world that you thought you could know.
[Verse 2 — Faster, sharper flow]
London’s fog is my curtain, the rooftops my stage,
I have studied the heart like a scholar studies a page.
Every colour tells stories that words cannot say,
Every smile holds a truth that may lead you astray.
My dear, do remember, appearances deceive,
For the things you perceive aren't the things you believe.
A gentleman’s promise, a courteous tone,
Can conceal a dark kingdom that calls him its own.
I need not be stronger, nor taller, nor grand,
For the cleverest victory requires a steady hand.
Let the mighty bring thunder, let the proud make a sound,
I'll be calmly observing while they stare at the ground.
And if fate has decided that tonight we shall duel,
Then permit me to show you the value of rules.
For I fight with refinement, with patience and grace,
While a thousand possibilities dance in their place.
[Bridge — Quiet, sinister elegance]
Tell me, dear sir...
Have you ever seen a colour
That could silence the soul?
Have you ever met a man
Who appears perfectly whole?
Do forgive my strange questions,
My curiosity is vast.
For a gentleman remembers
What the world forgets too fast.
[Verse 3 — Final round, commanding flow]
Now the stage is prepared, and the audience stares,
While the fate of the gods rests on who best prepares.
Heracles, your honour is a beautiful thing,
A virtue befitting a hero, a champion, a king.
I respect your conviction, your noble ideal,
Yet respect does not mean that my blade isn't real.
You may fight for your love, for the good of mankind,
While I fight with the cards that I carefully designed.
No insult intended, no hatred expressed,
I simply believe that the clever prevail best.
So forgive my audacity, pardon my art,
I have always preferred the mind over heart.
And when all has concluded, when silence remains,
When the last echo fades and the crowd knows the names,
Remember this lesson, should fortune allow:
A gentleman’s greatest deception
Is the truth he conceals with a bow.
[Outro — Whispered, with a soft chuckle]
Well then...
It has been an absolute pleasure, my dear.
I do hope you have enjoyed our little encounter.
Tips hat.
Until we meet again
