I like black and white
dream in black in white
you like black and white
run runaway

See chameleon lying there in the sun
all things to everyone
run runaway
if your in the swing
money ain't everything
if your in the swing
run runaway
Chorus
if you got it sussed (to figure out)
don't beat around the bush
if you got it sussed
run runaway
Chorus
oh now can't she wait?
no no come on and wait
oh now can't she wait?
run runaway
Chorus
I like black and white
dream in black in white
you like black and white
run runaway
Chorus
