Always alone when thinking hard
Always alone when after dark
I used to wear black
I used to wear black all the time
I used to wear black
I used to wear black all the time
Celebrating my result
With my fine fish-fingered friends
They used to wear black
They used to wear black all the time
They used to wear black
They used to wear black all the time
Watch their faces as Bowie dies
No dogs knees could look that sad
They used to wear black
They used to wear black all the time
They used to wear black
They used to wear black all the time
No Geoffrey, no Hubert
No Geoffrey, no Hubert
Gold diggers nightmare come true
Eat you up, eat you up
Spit you out, Spit you out
Get up and dance and make your feet speak
Just rock the room from side to side
Just look at the company I keep
Always alone when after dark
I used to wear black
I used to wear black all the time
I used to wear black
I used to wear black all the time
Celebrating my result
With my fine fish-fingered friends
They used to wear black
They used to wear black all the time
They used to wear black
They used to wear black all the time
Watch their faces as Bowie dies
No dogs knees could look that sad
They used to wear black
They used to wear black all the time
They used to wear black
They used to wear black all the time
No Geoffrey, no Hubert
No Geoffrey, no Hubert
Gold diggers nightmare come true
Eat you up, eat you up
Spit you out, Spit you out
Get up and dance and make your feet speak
Just rock the room from side to side
Just look at the company I keep
