🎶 Stranger In Town song analysis

In the middle of the night, a man wakes up to see a stealthy black figure running down his street. In the morning, the newspaper reveals a threat to the Queen and that this thug is dangerous. However, people claim that nothing is new as Scotland Yard conducts a search to identify the mysterious figure without success. Speculation is rife: the Ripper, Jesus or someone else? No one knows. The chorus warns people to be careful because a stranger is in town and not to make noise when he arrives.
