[Intro]
Heidi, heido, heida
Heidi, heido, heida
Heidi, heido, heida
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
[Verse 1]
Fog in the streets, a church clock beats
Midnight, darkness all around
You better beware, you better take care
Be prepared for the shock
[Verse 2]
The time has come and he's the one
Who's breathing down your neck
Coming from behind, now it's your time
A loser will die
[Chorus]
Fast as a shark, he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer, he'll rip out your heart
On a one way, track and you're not coming back
'Cause the killer's on the attack
[Verse 3]
Surprise attack, coming from the back
An expert of the deadly knack
Just take care, just beware
Be prepared for the fight
[Chorus]
Fast as a shark, he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer, he'll rip out your heart
On a one way, track and you're not coming back
'Cause the killer's on the attack
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Watch out, watch out
[Chorus]
Fast as a shark, he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer, he'll rip out your heart
On a one way, track and you're not coming back
'Cause the killer's on the attack
[Outro]
Fast as a shark, he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer, he'll rip out your heart
On a one way, track and you're not coming back
'Cause the killer's, 'cause the killer's
'Cause the killer's on the attack, attack, attack
Attack, attack, attack, attack
