Why Must You Always Dress in Black

Текст песни Ben Harper and Relentless7 - Why Must You Always Dress in Black

You may be a cheap date
But my therapy's expansive as hell
Then you pay a psychic healer who lets you know
Things aren't really working out so well

Tomorrow's shining off her face
Yesterday's shadows is at on our back
At our back
So why must you always dress in black?

People they don't take advice
They only give it
And the only way you're ever gonna learn
Is to live it

So what you spent your younger years
Parlaying on the wrong side of the track
Well, why why must you always dress in black?

If you have to lie, do it quickly
And as thoroughly as you can, as you can
This morning I woke up slow
Feeling like a shell of man

Don't blame me for us you cried
Cut me some slack, cut me some slack
And tell me why must you always dress in black
She wore high heels
The one that can pierce your heart, pierce your heart
Just 'cause you go down in history
Doesn't mean you're really all that smart

Like Robert E. Lee you're at your best
When under attack, under attack
Why must you always dress in black?

You call in sick on Monday
Tuesday you show up late
Wednesday you left early
Thursday you fight with a boss you hate

Friday you up and quit
Saturday you want your old job back, old job back
But Sunday you wake up all dressed in black
Why must you always dress in black?
