Deep Purple - Black & White Lyrics






read all about it tell me
have you heard the news
captain bob he don't pay no dues
you know he's looking in my window
he's stepping on my toes
don't want the truth and it goes to show

i got a joker up my sleeve
i know what to believe
it ain't right just because it's in black and
white

find yourself a hero
treat him like a friend
you build him up and tear him down again
it don't hold a candle hold it to the light
check it out is it wrong or right
is this the news of the world
it's just a pretty girl
she's all the news that's fit to print in
black and white

inside information taken down note by note
a silent footstep that's all she wrote
shit that's all she wrote
no need to worry the baby's gone to bed
dreaming dirty dreams in black and white
and read
now i got nothing to fear
is this the scoop of the year
headlines on my bathroom wall
in black and white

    Thanx for the longer version. I m still hoping for a remix of sorts. This albums has great songs but Gillan could have sang better(around the same time he had an operation, so maybe thats why)and Paicey wasnt the swingmeister on this album. Both he and Ritchie adopted a sound in the 80's that was totally unlike the 70's. They turned back to that 70's sound around 1990. I think you re a big Gillanfan because you mentioned Mitzi, which I kinda like , sometimes. My favourites though are Dead Or Alive, The Unwritten Law, Spanish Archer and Strangeways. The last could have been a great follow up live of Space trucking, building it toa extended 15 0r 20 or 30 minutes. Gillan said that improvising /extended soloing was out of date. Most DP fans who were anticipating the reunion in 84 wanted to hear the old sound, incl the extended soloing. They got a bit of that in Space trucking but the other songs were kept too short. Gillkans voice was already shot by then as canb be heard on Strange Kinda Woman live.

    A wouldn‘t say that only if you compare Gillan of 80s with Gillan of 70s! If you compare him with other vocalist, he is much better!

    Not true. They were room mates. Something happened between them later!!
