Black Dog On My Shoulder (Live Rehearsal Demo) [Remastered] Songtext
von Manic Street Preachers

There′s a black dog on my shoulder again
Licking my neck and saying she's my friend
Solitude the one thing that I really miss
Guess my life is a compromise

There′s a black dog on my shoulder again
I'm playing with it but it's gone to my head
Like "Carlito′s Way" there are no exit signs
Freeze me here until I am numb


My mouth is so dry
My eyes are shut tight
There′s a black dog a coming tonight
Black dog's a coming tonight

My dilemma but not my choice
Winston Churchill, can you hear my voice?
Melodrama here in my kitchen sink
Double vision is the way it is

Am I coming home to you again
Or am I stupid just by design?
Does it matter if you ever know
This black dog is out of control


My mouth is so dry
My eyes are shut tight
There′s a black dog a coming tonight
Black dog's a coming tonight
