Black Dog Lyrics

There's a

Black dog staring at me

Right through my face

He told me my throne is waiting in a fiery place

I'm taking my friends with me

When I go down as well

Our names were torn off the wall

Of the Sistine Chapel

And I'm not opposed to the good

Of humanity no, I've just seen evil grow in places

Where it should never grow

And people talk a lot shit

Like to blow their own horns

But mine grew out of my head

Since the day I was born

I'm so sorry for the mishap

Now I'm back

A criminal and all that

I'm here for

My comeback

Na na na na na na na

Your welfare

Your self care

Won't keep you from your nightmares

One by one

They're all there

Na na na na na na na

Suppose I'm cynical now

With some blood on the brain

Opinions after all are open

To the public domain

And they're all varied

In a mix so just stand and get doused

And don't ever throw stones

From your little glass house

I'm so sorry for the mishap

Now I'm back

A criminal and all that

I'm here for

My comeback

Na na na na na na na

Your welfare

Your self care

Won't keep you from your nightmares

One by one

They're all there

Na na na na na na na

Ohh...

I've been watching the world

Sort of crumble to a state

We're not winning, neither losing

Only burning at this rate

Every dog has its day

As do the powers that be

And nobody knows this better than me

I'm so sorry for the mishap

Now I'm back

A criminal and all that

I'm here for

My comeback

Na na na na na na na

Your welfare

Your self care

Won't keep you from your nightmares

One by one

They're all there

Na na na na na na na
