Lyrics for Black Cat by Dave Stewart from the The Way It Was Back Then

I’m a black cat,
On an old tin roof,
I’ve got a mind that’s bulletproof,
I don’t need nobody to let me in,
No matter where you been, well, I already been,

I’m like a lock that you just can’t break open,
I’m under pressure, but, I just keep on coping,
I keep running when my knee is broken,
I walk into trouble with my eyes wide open,

But, time is like a ticking bomb,
I’ll see you when the smoke has gone,
So many things have all gone wrong,
I didn’t want them to,
All I wanted was you,

So many problems, and they all need fixing,
So many tracks, and they all need mixing,
But, I got super speed like the Power Rangers,
And all the red lights, well, I just don’t see danger,

But, time is like a ticking bomb,
I’ll see you when the smoke has gone,
So many things have all gone wrong,
I didn’t want them to,
All I wanted was you.
