David Bowie — Black Tie White Noise 2021 Remaster

[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 kill you I look into your eyes and I know you won't kill me You won't kill me You won't kill 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 kill you And I turn my back for I know you won't kill me You won't kill me You won't kill 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 (Black tie, white noise) Cranking out Cranking out Putting on the black tie Cranking out the white noise Cranking out Cranking out Cranking out white noise (Black tie, white noise) Cranking out Cranking out Putting on the black tie Cranking out the white noise
