Blackboard Sky Lyrics by Wall of Voodoo

Seven Days in Sammystown

0

They're frying fish in Chinatown and the wind smells of rain
My head is ticking like a bomb on a subway train
Now I call to the All-High
And I get opened up like Venetian blinds
And I draw your face on the blackboard sky
Yeah, I draw your face on blackboard sky
The worst is over, hum a hymn to her burning my faith
For such a villain I am criminally underpaid
Now my rope is tied
The gas is on, the chair is begging to be climbed
And I draw your face on the blackboard sky
Yeah, I draw your face on blackboard sky
And if I look in your eyes
And I see you say yeah
And if I see you say yeah
We'll be happy once again
Fresh out of hell on a morning so cold and alone
Nobody there to say "welcome home"
So I roll like the leaves
And I blow like the sand
And I tumble like a paper cup that's caught in the wind
Now I see all sides
Sense is not the issue
I've got the eyes of a fly
And I draw your face on blackboard sky
Yeah, I draw your face on blackboard sky
