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
Huh I'd like to meet his tailor
Ohwww  Werewolves of London

Well, I saw Lon Chaney walking with the Queen
Doing the Werewolf of London

Doing the Werewolf of London
I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's
His hair was perfect
Ohwww  Werewolves of London
Ohw  www
