Something so simple, that meant so much to me…
White n Black, I Want It Back
Intro
White n Black, I want it back
V 1
You got me silent cursin
Cause I lost you to another
Now my lips are pursin
Ripped out, slipped out, or pulled out
Yeah I take it you’re a pro bro
I gotta notion you’ll getta promotion
A degree in rippin off society
Right before their bleary stare
Memorandum of the unfair
Gun lords jumpin queues
At the fun fair
Angry birds wide eyed
Tweeting happy
Iphones n apathy
Doing it all the wrong way, no way
Burning out sobriety
Tearing through society
What a pity you downsized
To girly size
Ditty n gritty on the outside
Potty hollow on the inner
V 2
Now i’m sunset cruising
Blocked at ten past five O’clock
Grounded hog n little miss piggy
Zombie deep n brain fried
Up-sized n battered on the side
Packed n momentarily unknowns
Big butts sitting tight
Day turning into night
Stuffed n stolen baggage
Sundown, turn around
Pinch my dusty pink
Used to believe
Frequent flies dodging the flu
Train hopped the other way
Took flight wrong day
Yeah you unzipped, ripped n tripped
Stealthily out the beepin door
Armed back down to Southside
Somehow made it’s way
Nabbed from Western pay pack
Locked door you stole my heart
From the holy loud n proud
Chorus
White n Black, I want it back
Dogeared n faded
White n Black, give it Back
Heart seared n jaded…
White n Black, I want it back
Dogeared n faded
White n Black, give it Back
Heart ripped n shaded…
V 3
Pastor pale n hope derailed
Smile back up at the cameras
Mind the gap (fuck ya)
You left ya tracks
Quickest closest thirsty camel
Drink it up, cheap trick, lowlife prick…
But there aint no use cursin
Cause I just wanna go home
Songs, surf n verse n rhyme
Seekin a bout of publicity
Something missing
Lost n found
Surround me air of dumbfounded
Who broke the moralistic
Unjust, where’s the love
Black eyed with no trust
I worked so hard for that you prat
Yeah you twat
White pointer soul destroyer
I don’t care you spent my cash
Cause I’m used to having nothing
Aint the first time
Probably aint gonna be the last time
V 4
You wanna do some time
You should’ve asked me nicely
I probably would’ve handed you
Hands up over the lot
Karmic berried on the top
Did you have a laugh, have a blast
Fill ya hamster holes n crime
With my last dime
About that!
I can bear the feeling
Goldilocked
Trout slap now hear me out
You took away the one thing
That’s kept me going strong
On my long journeys home
So forget my name n toss the rest
Except for just one thing…
Chorus
White n Black, I want it back
Dogeared n faded
White n Black, give it back
Heart seared n jaded…
White n Black, I want it back
Dogeared n faded
White n Black, give it Back
Heart ripped n shaded…
V 5
Fuck the crime n fuck the dime
Drink ya poison shimmer wine
On the sublimed
On the house you lowlife, with no life
Cause in my mind
He’s my only fan
And it’s worth more
To my bruised n broken heart
Than all the cash
In the whole friggin world
The one that got away
Knuckle wrap
Sod of the law
All year long
Bridge
United Kingdom & New Zealand
I took that with me everywhere
Cause that’s all I had of him
And he’s probably with another
Another lover anyway
But I want it back, need it back
Chorus
White n Black, I want it back
Dogeared n faded
White n Black, give it Back
Heart seared n jaded…
White n Black, I want it back
Dogeared n faded
White n Black, give it Back
Heart ripped n shaded…
Outro
His business card
Printed n splintered
Dog-eared n faded…
White n Black, I want it back (repeat…fade out)
