| [00:00.700] |
Black, you are my enemy |
| [00:03.796] |
And I cannot get close to thee |
| [00:07.113] |
Our life is ruled by enmity |
| [00:10.380] |
And I can't weaken that |
| [00:13.907] |
The only way that I can see |
| [00:17.049] |
Is to hold you close to me |
| [00:20.437] |
To love you for it's meant to be |
| [00:23.582] |
I weaken your attack |
| [00:29.627] |
Everything was lucked and downy |
| [00:32.630] |
What was good was up from under |
| [00:36.049] |
Until black, that awful tender |
| [00:39.574] |
Came and popped my sense of wonder |
| [00:43.202] |
All at once all eyes turned at him |
| [00:46.716] |
Leaving me an unwatched body |
| [00:50.364] |
And it sagged, my body's rib cage |
| [00:53.112] |
Out from under ogler's study |
| [00:56.876] |
Black was decomposing quickly |
| [00:59.916] |
This was found offensive to me |
| [01:04.116] |
His disrespect for life's proprieties |
| [01:07.336] |
Made me scared he would destroy me |
| [01:10.759] |
Black, you are my enemy |
| [01:13.568] |
And I cannot get close to thee |
| [01:17.541] |
Our life is ruled by enmity |
| [01:20.749] |
And I can't weaken that |
| [01:24.429] |
The only way that I can see |
| [01:27.341] |
Is to hold you close to me |
| [01:30.932] |
To love you for it's meant to be |
| [01:34.014] |
I weaken your attack |
| [01:40.107] |
So I thought I'd try to cut him |
| [01:42.665] |
Try to force him 'neath my level |
| [01:46.215] |
The only way to equal to him |
| [01:49.144] |
Would be hit him with a shovel |
| [01:52.720] |
But to really rise above him |
| [01:56.464] |
That would be the final evil |
| [01:59.426] |
So instead I asked the sucker |
| [02:02.416] |
If he'd care to see my rooms |
| [02:06.572] |
And as a friend and as a comrade |
| [02:09.876] |
And all the things that these implied |
| [02:13.761] |
I made him leave what it was that he had |
| [02:16.566] |
Used to keep us unallied |
| [02:20.106] |
Black, you are my enemy |
| [02:22.885] |
And I cannot get close to thee |
| [02:26.677] |
Our life is ruled by enmity |
| [02:29.884] |
And I can't weaken that |
| [02:33.271] |
The only way that I can see |
| [02:36.588] |
Is to hold you close to me |
| [02:39.954] |
To love you for it's meant to be |
| [02:43.282] |
I weaken your attack |
| [02:48.766] |
Now black and I we are together |
| [02:52.875] |
Fairly just inseparable |
| [02:58.705] |
And in the terriblest of weather |
| [03:03.373] |
Our bonds are incorruptible |
| [03:12.218] |
Black, you are my enemy |
| [03:14.714] |
And I cannot get close to thee |
| [03:18.123] |
Our life is ruled by enmity |
| [03:21.288] |
And I can't weaken that |
| [03:24.281] |
The only way that I can see |
| [03:28.154] |
Is to hold you close to me |
| [03:31.506] |
To love you for it's meant to be |
| [03:34.637] |
I weaken your attack |
