Put a rose in my cheeks
You are vicious and quick to attack
But when demons have climbed on your back
Now color me in whatever mood I'm in
To the depths of despair you will crawl
And you put on a wonderful show
I could be still in touch with you
It's all sweetness and lightness you bring
You go quietly, my miserable friend
Fall to your infinite charm
When you shake off the shadows of night
You put on a wonderful show
I could be still in touch with you
Black and white boy, black and white boy
You're so extreme, you're so confused
And you're full of the wonder of spring
Black and white boy, black and white boy
And a room full of people
Do you really, really think I don't know?
And you're acting so nice it's obscene
Do you really, really think I don't know?
Black and white boy
You'll make fools of the liars and creeps
Now color me in whatever mood I'm in
And your eyes are so clear and so bright
And you run like a cat to the cream
Black and white boy, black and white boy
But when darkness should quickly descend
