Our Emstory, it starts
ARight to the end of the Clife of poor CJenny
Clocked Bout like Big Ben
This EmScreech, dear boy, Awhere did he go
                        C        BN.C.
He melted into the black night, just like snow
[Verse 1]
EmPatrick, man, let me in, please Eopen the F#door
I think I Efucked up, Patrick, really fucked up, Gman, I'm not F#sure
EI got crazy, Emleft a lady laying Gstill on the F#floor
                                             A       BN.C.
I think I killed her, Patrick, come on man, I can't knock no more
But EmScreech kept on knocking, 'till his Gknuckles became Esore
But Emthere's no sign of Patrick, down at Gnumber 54
No Emrefuge for our villain, for the Gbitter hands of faith
Have Emsomething far more sinister in mindB, that does await
[Spoken: Woman & Screech]
N.C.
Hello?
Hi babe, you in?
Nah, nothing really, I'm just a bit tired
Listen, can I swing around yours for a few minutes?
I just really miss you, babe
What the fuck you mean you're busy?
You fucking bitch, for fucks sake
[Verse 2]
EmSirens sound apEmproaching like a GBanshee in the night
The Emshrill cry of Emjustice cutting Glike the sharpest knife
But EmScreech was never Emone to run, not Gone to miss a fight
One Emhand upon his Emblade, he turned to Bface the blue light
EmCome on then, you fucking cunts, lets Gfucking Emhave you then
I am EmScreech, I'm the boss here, I'm the Gender of Emmen
You think that Emuniform you're wearing means that you own these streets
Well these are Emmy fucking streets and they call me fucking GScreech
[Bridge]
EmRichard was an officer, who Gstood at F#6 foot 3
Working EmLondon on the night shift, what he Gdidn't think he'd F#see
Was a Emboy running at him, like an Ganimal posF#sessed
                        E6N.C.
With no time to hesitate, he fired four bullets at Screech's chest
[Outro]
Our Emstory it ends, Aright at the start
Young CScreech and poor Jenny, lying Bone street apart
An Emofficer shaken, by the Aboy that he claimed
Two Cbody's lay lifeless, and Bit's such a shame
It's such a shameEm6
