"The Hollywood Strangler" lyrics

"The Hollywood Strangler"

I was living out in West Hollywood when a Hollywood strangler was strangling women. Every night there was a panel discussion on TV about the strangler... speculations about his habits, his motives, his methods... one thing was clear about him: he only strangled women when they were alone, or with other women
And the panel members would always end the show by saying: "Now for all you women, listen: don't go outside without a man. Don't walk out to your car, don't even take the garbage out by yourself, always go with a man"

Then, one of the eyewitnesses identified a policeman as one of the suspects. The next night, the chief of the police was on the panel, and he said:
"Now for all you women, whatever happens, do not stop for a police officer. Stay in your car. If a police officer tries to stop you, do not stop. Keep driving, and under no circumstances should you get out of your car

For a few weeks, half the traffic in LA was doing twice the speed limits
