david bowie - black tie white noise (extended remix) lyrics

[intro]
(yo yo yo yo yo)
(yo yo yo yo yo)
(yo yo yo yo yo)

[verse 1: al b. sure! & backing vocalists]
getting my facts from a benetton ad
looking through african eyes
lit by the glare of an l.a. fire (black tie, white noise)
i’ve got a face, not just my race, bang bang
i’ve got you, babe

[refrain: backing vocalists & david bowie]
putting on the black tie
cranking out the white noise

[verse 2: david bowie & backing vocalists]
sun comes up and the man goes down
woman comes again
just an hour or so to be safe from fear (black tie, white noise)
then we jump through hoops, we’re divisible now
just disappear

[refrain: backing vocalists & david bowie]
putting on the black tie
cranking out the white noise
[chorus: david bowie & al b. sure!]
wе reach out over race and hold еach other’s hands
then die in the flames singing “we shall overcome”
what’s going on?
there’ll be some blood, no doubt about it
but we’ll come through, don’t doubt it
i look into your eyes and i know i won’t k!ll you
i look into your eyes and i know you won’t k!ll me
you won’t k!ll me
you won’t k!ll me, no
but i look into your eyes and i wonder sometimes

[refrain: backing vocalists & david bowie]
putting on the black tie
cranking out the white noise

[bridge: david bowie & al b. sure!]
oh lord, just let him see me
lord, lordy, let him hear me
let him call me brother
let him put his arms around me
let him put his hands together

[chorus: david bowie & al b. sure!]
reach out over race and hold each other’s hands
walk through the night thinking “we are the world”
what’s going on?
there will be some blood, no doubt about it
we shall come through, don’t doubt it
i look into your eyes and i know i won’t k!ll you
and i turn my back for i know you won’t k!ll me
you won’t k!ll me
you won’t k!ll me, no
but i wonder why
yes, i wonder why sometimes
[refrain: backing vocalists & david bowie]
putting on the black tie
cranking out the white noise

[verse 3: david bowie & backing vocalists]
they’ll show us how to break the rules
but never how to make the rules
reduce us down to witless punks
(black tie, white noise)
fascist cries, both black and white
who’s got the blood? who’s got the gun?

[refrain: backing vocalists & david bowie]
putting on the black tie
cranking out the white noise

[outro: david bowie & backing vocalists]
cranking out
cranking out
cranking out white noise
cranking out
cranking out
putting on the black tie
cranking out the white noise
