Black

[00:04.48] Black, you are my enemy
[00:06.50] And I cannot get close to thee
[00:06.85] Our life is ruled by enmity
[00:10.05] And I can't weaken that
[00:13.65] The only way that I can see
[00:17.16] Is to hold you close to me
[00:20.18] To love you for it's meant to be
[00:23.42] I weaken your attack
[00:25.82] Everything was lucked and downy
[00:32.53] What was good was up from under
[00:35.48] Until black, that awful tender
[00:38.83] Came and popped my sense of wonder
[00:42.40] All at once all eyes turned at him
[00:46.02] Leaving me an unwatched body
[00:50.23] And it sagged, my body's rib cage
[00:52.78] Out from under ogler's study
[00:56.37] Black was decomposing quickly
[01:00.25] This was found offensive to me
[01:04.09] His disrespect for life's proprieties
[01:07.33] Made me scared he would destroy me
[01:10.67] Black, you are my enemy
[01:13.87] And I cannot get close to thee
[01:17.45] Our life is ruled by enmity
[01:21.43] And I can't weaken that
[01:24.05] The only way that I can see
[01:27.44] Is to hold you close to me
[01:30.90] To love you for it's meant to be
[01:34.36] I weaken your attack
[01:40.17] So I thought I'd try to cut him
[01:43.21] Try to force him 'neath my level
[01:46.28] The only way to equal to him
[01:48.85] Would be hit him with a shovel
[01:52.81] But to really rise above him
[01:56.93] That would be the final evil
[01:59.01] So instead I asked the sucker
[02:03.27] If he'd care to see my rooms
[02:06.79] And as a friend and as a comrade
[02:10.20] And all the things that these implied
[02:12.59] I made him leave what it was that he had
[02:16.52] Used to keep us unallied
[02:18.53] Black, you are my enemy
[02:23.28] And I cannot get close to thee
[02:27.05] Our life is ruled by enmity
[02:30.34] And I can't weaken that
[02:33.60] The only way that I can see
[02:36.19] Is to hold you close to me
[02:39.62] To love you for it's meant to be
[02:43.08] I weaken your attack
[02:48.55] Now black and I we are together
[02:52.02] Fairly just inseparable
[02:58.21] And in the terriblest of weather
[03:05.12] Our bonds are incorruptible
[03:11.59] Black, you are my enemy
[03:15.07] And I cannot get close to thee
[03:18.35] Our life is ruled by enmity
[03:22.04] And I can't weaken that
[03:25.21] The only way that I can see
[03:28.65] Is to hold you close to me
[03:32.40] To love you for it's meant to be
[03:34.68] I weaken your attack
[03:38.36]
