Front Cover First And Last And Always

Black Planet was relased in 1985 on the First And Last And Always album.


Lyrics

(In the western sky)
(My kingdom come)

So still so dark all over Europe
And I ride down the highway, 101
By the side of the ocean, headed for sunset
For the kingdom come, for the
Black, black planet
Black, black world
Black, black planet
Black, black world

Run around in the radiation
Run around in the acid rain, on a
Black, black planet
Black planet hanging over the highway
Out of my mind's eye, out of the memory
Black world, out of my mind

Still so dark all over Europe
And the rainbow rises here
In the western sky the kill to show for
At the end of the great white pier I see a
Black, black planet
Black, black world
Black, black planet
Black, black world

Run around in the radiation
Tune in, turn on, burn out in the acid rain on a
Black, black planet
Black, black world
Black, black planet
Black, black world
Black, black planet
Black, black world
Black, black planet
Black, black world
(repeat to fade)
