Black Monday - Neneh Cherry

You can sleep-walk back and find me

Another symphony in session

Walkin' today for the people

Watch the smoke rise behind me

Isn’t that my right

When to breathe to my own guilt

It’s so hard anyway as it is

Joker’s wild, laughin' back

But I have to stay

Cut you loose, cut you up

Cut me free, cut me up

I wanna choose my own day

Let me go, call me now

Black Monday

Another black Monday came to stab me up

We stood up, I stand up

Empty promised land, we dressed it up

A woman, we messed it up

Liar sleep-walk back to find me

Just turnin' up, I’m outta luck

Watch the fires rise behind me

We sew it up, it’s gotta stop

Isn’t that my right

When to breathe to my own guilt

It’s so hard anyway as it is

Joker’s wild, laughin' back

But I have to stay

Cut you loose, cut you up

Cut me free, cut me up

I wanna choose my own day

Let me go, call me now

Black Monday

Back in the black alley never thought I’d see the day

It’s throwback time and comin' just like yesterday

Here’s my body, not my own, I still have to pay

Give it all away

Dressin' up clean, me looking sharp

Coat hangin' wire and wear me out

Hangin' out, bleedin' out

Soul-searchin' notes

For all the people that stood beside me

I had some men that felt just like me

Isn’t that my right

When to breathe to my own guilt

It’s so hard anyway as it is

Joker’s wild, laughin' back

But I have to stay

Cut you loose, cut you up

Cut me free, cut me up

I wanna choose my own day

Let me go, call me now

Black Monday

(Isn't that, to breathe)

We’ll never let go

(To my own, it’s so hard anyway)

We’ll never let go

(As it is, joker’s wild)

I’ll never let go

(Laughin' back, but I have to stay)

Never let go

(Cut you loose, cut you up, cut me free)

We’ll never let go

(Cut me up, I wanna choose my own way)

We’ll never let go

I’ll never let go

We’ll never let go

(Black Monday)
