Black and White Town

Here comes the action
Here comes at last
Lord give me a reaction
Lord give me a chance
You should follow me down
In satellite towns
There's no colour and no sound
I've been ten feet underground
Got to get out of this satellite town
Here comes some action
First time in my life
I gotta get up to get compensation
I gotta get up to get this to last
Whether you live alone
Or you're trying to find your way in this world
you better make sure that you don't crack you're head on that pavement Man
My God! the shock!
It's been preying on me and mine
This is a dangerous place man
This is a dangerous place, there's nothing here.
You should follow your way down
In satellite towns
There's no colour and no sound
I've been ten feet underground
Black and White Town
You should follow me down
There's no colour and no sound
In the Black and White Town
I've been ten feet underground
In the Black and White Town
