black tie white noise (urban mix) - david bowie lyrics

[intro]
(yo yo yo yo yo)
(yo yo yo yo yo)
(yo yo yo yo yo)
(verse 1)
getting my facts from a benneton ad
i’m lookin’ through african eyes
lit by the glare of an l.a. fire
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
sun comes up and the man goes down
and the woman comes again
just an hour or so to be safe from fear
then we jump through hoops, we’re divisable now, just disappear
[refrain: backing vocalists & david bowie]
putting on the black tie
cranking out the white noise
(chrous)
we reach out over race and hold each other’s hands
then die in the flames singing “we shall overcome”
whoa! 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 you won’t k!ll me
you won’t k!ll me
you won’t k!ll me
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
(verse 2)
oh lord, just let him see me
lord, lord just let him hear me
let him call me brother
let him put his arms around me
let him put his hands together
(chorus 2)
reach over race and hold each other’s hands
walk through the night thinking we are the world
woa! 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 you won’t k!ll me
you won’t k!ll me
you won’t k!ll me
but i wonder why
yes, and i wonder why sometimes
[refrain: backing vocalists & david bowie]
putting on the black tie
cranking out the white noise
(verse 3)
they’ll show us how to break the rules
but never how to make the rules
reduce us down to witless punks
facist cries both black and white, who’s got the blood, who’s got the gun

putting on the black tie, cranking out the white noise
ooh yeah do do do doo yeah woo woo yeah oh cranking out yeaha*hey
[refrain: backing vocalists & david bowie]
putting on the black tie
cranking out the white noise
