Lyrics
Black/White
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'd fuck crime in the house of love
When the lamb couldn't get enough
Killer palace full of sin
Never knew what beauty I'd find within
Yeah yeah yeah
Came upon a stranger in the night
Filled me up with such a fright
This little boy ain't what he seems
Too much grease behind the sheen
Yeah yeah yeah
She kissed me Oh boy, what can I do?
When all your wishes don't come true
Too pure to ever make it work
Too proud to ever make it hurt
Yeah yeah yeah
Please, girl, please do take your time
Go ahead we'll both be fine
It's Friday night What can I do?
Think your wish'll still come true?
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah (x4)
