Black Book Lyrics
Offer your trust to a friend
Who is not what he says
And you know when you're dry, what you're thinkin
Trout in the brook, you're about to get hooked
To a greedy false un-Catholic knave
The Black Book you took
Was permanent-ally diversified
Cousin why, cousin why, cousin why (2x)
I took the locomotive to Kreutzberg
Passed through the scenery
And passengers got on that train too
And they really surprised me when they said:
" The Black Book you took
Was permanent-ally diversified
Cousin why, cousin why, cousin why" (2x)
I've got some friends
But I got some enemies too
And yes I got some people in between
People just like you
The Black Book you took
Was permanent-ally diversified
Cousin why, cousin why, cousin why
The Black Book you took
Was permanent-ally diversified (2x)
Who is not what he says
And you know when you're dry, what you're thinkin
Trout in the brook, you're about to get hooked
To a greedy false un-Catholic knave
Was permanent-ally diversified
Cousin why, cousin why, cousin why (2x)
Passed through the scenery
And passengers got on that train too
And they really surprised me when they said:
Was permanent-ally diversified
Cousin why, cousin why, cousin why" (2x)
But I got some enemies too
And yes I got some people in between
People just like you
Was permanent-ally diversified
Cousin why, cousin why, cousin why
The Black Book you took
Was permanent-ally diversified (2x)
