Eric Burdon - Black And White World lyrics

I'm a war child raised from the ashes radium The sunlight burns my eyes so I pray for the night to come In the back row darkness I burst my bubble Because it's there that misfits like me can stay out of trouble I live in a black and white world I love those black and white movies You see when you're not of this earth It's not so easy to move me Me Mike and Mickey were hiding from the daylight Salivating at the femme fatale her dress is so tight She whispers in my ear as we dance to white jazz You got a light baby when she knows that's all I've ever had I live in a black and white world I love those black and white movies You see when you're not of this earth It's not so easy to move me Precious white milk skin black and blue bruises In the backseat of a cab full of rhythem and blueses We go uptown downtown looking for Louis Galanka He's going to get us false pa**ports man and we can Sail off to Casa Blanca I live in a black and white world I love those black and white movies You see when you're not of this earth It's not so easy to move me I'm not afraid of dying anymore Because it's the only chance I've got to meet my maker And it's the opportunity I've been waiting for To say hello and hats off to Josephine Baker That girl is living in a black and white world I love those black and white movies You see when you're not of this earth It's not so easy to move me Black white world black white movies You see when you're not of this earth It's not so easy to move me Late at night, black and white Black white black white Black and white
