Black on Black II lyrics
by Heart



Daddy's little soldier boy
Mama's little pride and joy
Both hands on her apron strings
"Don't you touch that dirty thing"
A warning signal from above
Inspection with a clean white glove
They say that opposits attract
Like right and wrong

Black on black
Like pleasure and a little pain
The sacred and profane
Ice and fire counteract
Like black on black

The oldest story known to man
The willing sacrificial lamb
Behind the light a shadow falls
The code of silence shakes the walls
A whisper to a silent scream
The power is so frightening
They say that opposits attract
Like right and wrong

Black on black
Like pleasure and a little pain
The sacred and profane
Ice and fire counteract
Like black on black

A warning signal from above
Inspection with a clean white glove
They say that opposits attract
Like right and wrong

Black on black

Some things seem so sacred
Like a loaded question-
The power of suggestion
Like the face of danger-
The kindness of a stranger.
Like a Judas kiss-
Like pleasure and a little pain
Immaculate seduction-
Absolute corruption
Ice and Fire counteract
No turning back

Black on black
Black on black
Black on black
Like pleasure and a little pain
The sacred and profane
Ice and fire counteract
Like black on black
