Black Blue and White by The New Siberians Lyrics
Finally made it out to the show
Where they paint the bathrooms black
You never know what could be goin' on
Right there behind your back
People don't know the damage they do
With the words that they can't say
Years go by, people give up
They just can't find a way
When the cat goes a scratchin' and sniffin' around
Well, the mice all run and hide
The way you looked and what you said to me
Made the blood rise behind my eyes
You wanna get up all in my face
Because of things that you can't say
You want blood like a needle can draw
But this is my turn here today
As the crow flies
See the heat rise in the night
Buses stop but no one's getting on
I think of you and wonder how you're getting on
Now that I have gone
I'll never get the way you treated me
Like a dog outside the dump
I guess a bed is what you make of it
When you throw down the icky thump
Some say people's as evil as they come
And they need to be beat back
I'm on loan and I'm almost home
I need a few more shades of black, blue and white
Where they paint the bathrooms black
You never know what could be goin' on
Right there behind your back
People don't know the damage they do
With the words that they can't say
Years go by, people give up
They just can't find a way
When the cat goes a scratchin' and sniffin' around
Well, the mice all run and hide
The way you looked and what you said to me
Made the blood rise behind my eyes
You wanna get up all in my face
Because of things that you can't say
You want blood like a needle can draw
But this is my turn here today
As the crow flies
See the heat rise in the night
Buses stop but no one's getting on
I think of you and wonder how you're getting on
Now that I have gone
I'll never get the way you treated me
Like a dog outside the dump
I guess a bed is what you make of it
When you throw down the icky thump
Some say people's as evil as they come
And they need to be beat back
I'm on loan and I'm almost home
I need a few more shades of black, blue and white
