Black and Blonde lyrics

[Verse 1]
What's that sound?
What's that sound?
What's that sound?
You got me hanging on
And listening to confessions on the telephone

[Verse 2]
Hear me now
Hear me now
Hear me now
You beat me black and blonde
Somebody, tell me what the hell is going on

[Chorus]
You beat me black and blonde
Ticking like a bomb
Ticking like a bomb
You leave me black and blonde
Ticking like a bomb
Ticking like a bomb
Black and blonde
Break me down into a gun
Somebody, tell me what the hell is going on

[Verse 3]
Dumb it down
Dumb it down
Dumb it down
I’ll spell it out for you
I’m the greatest f*cking thing that ever happened to you
(Ooh-ooh)
[Verse 4]
It’s over now
It's over now
It's over now
What a way to go
Cause no one ever really has to know
Cause he was just another bloody so-and-so
Oh, oh

[Chorus]
You beat me black and blonde
Ticking like a bomb
Ticking like a bomb
You leave me black and blonde
Ticking like a bomb
Ticking like a bomb
And I'll take you on until I’m gone
Somebody tell me what the hell is going on

[Bridge]
Sleep little child
I forgive you
And for the tears I caused
I’m sorry, too

[Chorus]
Black and blonde
Ticking like a bomb
You leave me black and blonde
Ticking like a bomb
And I’ll take you on
You break me down
And I’ll take you on
Until I’m gone
