Out Of The Black Lyrics

[Neneh]
I'm skipping down the street
Just trying to mind my business
I've got my blinkers on
So don't stop I can win this
[Robyn]
I see the wolf packs
Congregate on the corners
Hiding their cut backs
While attending the mourners

[Neneh & Robyn]
Got eyes behind our back
Wash your mouth, face the pack
Out of the black, out of the blue
I just want you to want it too!

[Neneh]
I'm Neneh, I'm complete
When all my kids are happy
I feel what's gone before
Will come right back and slap me!
[Robyn]
I'm Robyn on the microphone into the speaker
You know I'm not sick like that
But I've got a fever
[Chorus Neneh & Robyn]
On our toes to the black
From the red, we'll be back
Out of the black, out of the blue
I just want you to want it too
These are the facts And here is the news
We just want you to want it too

[Neneh]
Spread my wings and
Take small river sips ??? planet

[Robyn]
Spread my wings planet below life
???

[Chorus Neneh & Robyn]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Kieran and I had been having this conversation about a song I was having a hard time with, and he was like, ‘Maybe this is the one you should do together.’
So we got together in Stockholm, and we had the most amazing day. Robyn is really something special. Hopefully that’s not the only thing that we do together.
