Lyrics

Black on black!
Daddy's little soldier boy
Mama's little pride and joy
Both hands on her apron strings
"Don't you touch that dirty thing"
A warning signal from above
Inspection with a clean white glove
They say that opposites attract
Like right and wrong
Black on black
Like pleasure and a little pain
The sacred and profane
Ice and fire counteract
Like black on black
The oldest story known to man
The willing sacrificial lamb
Behind the light a shadow falls
The code of silence shakes the walls
A whisper to a silent scream
The power is so frightening
They say that opposites attract
Like right and wrong
Black on black
Like pleasure and a little pain
The sacred and profane
Ice and fire counteract just
Like black on black
A warning signal from above
Inspection with a clean white glove
They say that opposites attract
Like right and wrong, black on black
Some things seem so sacred
Like a loaded question
The power of suggestion
Like the face of danger
The kindness of a stranger
Like a Judas Kiss
Like pleasure and a little pain
Immaculate seduction
Absolute corruption
Ice and fire counteract
No turning back
Like black on black
Black on black
Black on black
Like pleasure and a little pain
The sacred and profane
Ice and fire counteract
Like black on black
Like pleasure and a little pain
The sacred and profane
Ice and fire counteract
Just like black on black
Black
A little pain
Just like black on black
Black (Ice and fire counteract)
Black on black
Black on black
Black on black
