Black Tie White Noise Lyrics - Pet Shop Boys

Getting my facts from a benneton ad 

I'm lookin' thru african eyes 

Lit by the glare of an l.a. fire 

Black tie white noise 

I've got a face, not just my race, bang bang I've got you babe 

Putting on the black tie 

Crankin up the white noise 

Sun comes up and the man goes down 

And the woman comes again 

Just an hour or so to be safe from fear 

Black tie white noise 

Then we jump thru hoops, we're divisable now, just disappear 

Putting on the black tie 

Crankin up the white noise

We reach out over race and hold each other's hands 

Then die in the flames singing "we shall overcome" 

Whoa! what's going on? 

There'll be some blood no doubt about it 

But we'll come thru don't doubt it 

I look into your eyes and I know you won't kill me 

I look into your eyes and I know you won't kill me 

You won't kill me 

You won't kill me no 

But I look into your eyes 

And I wonder sometimes 

Putting on the black tie 

Crankin up the white noise 

Oh lord, just let him see me 

Lord, lord just let him hear me 

Let him call me brother 

Let him put his arms around me 

Let him put his hands together. 

Reach out over race and hold each other's hands 

Walk thru the nite thinking we are the world 

Whoa! what's going on? 

There will be some blood no doubt about it 

But we'll come thru don't doubt it 

I look into your eyes and I know you won't kill me 

And I turn my back for I know you won't kill me 

You won't kill me 

You won't kill me no 

But I wonder why 

Yes, I wonder why sometimes 

Putting on the black tie 

Crankin up the white noise 

They'll show us how to break the rules 

But never how to make the rules 

Reduce us down to witless punks 

Black tie white noise 

Facist cries both black and white, who's got the blood, who's got the gun. 

Putting on the black tie, cranking out the white noise 

Oh yeah 

Cranking out 

Cranking out 

Cranking out white noise 

Black tie white noise 

Cranking out 

Cranking out 

Putting on the black tie 

Cranking up the white noise 

Cranking out 

Cranking out 

Cranking out white noise 

Black tie white noise 

Cranking out 

Cranking out
