They Used To Wear Black Lyrics - Beautiful South

(Heaton / Rotheray) 

Always alone when thinking hard 

Always alone when after dark 

I used to wear black 

I used to wear black all the time 

I used to wear black 

I used to wear black all the time 

Celebrating my result 

With my fine fish-fingered friends

Chorus: 

They used to wear black 

They used to wear black all the time 

They used to wear black 

They used to wear black all the time 

Watch their faces as Bowie dies 

No dogs knees could look that sad 

Chorus 

No Geoffrey, no Hubert 

No Geoffrey, no Hubert 

Gold diggers nightmare come true

Eat you up, eat you up 

Spit you out, Spit you out 

Get up and dance and make your feet speak 

Just rock the room from side to side 

Just look at the company I keep
