Black Dog

Black dog
Black dog

What you supposed to do when the black dog comes knocking?
How can you move when your limbs are tied?
Pull off your skin
Turn it outside in
Be a new me
A new me

What if they see who I am beneath it?
Rotten and gray like I'm in the ground
Wish I could undo
Everything I knew
Be a new me
A new me

I'm a bad woman
I'm a bad
I'm a bad, bad woman
I'm a bad woman
I'm a bad
I'm a bad, bad woman

Black dog
Black dog

Who writes the ways that I must be graceful?
Let out my neck, let it be adored
Drain out the blood
'Til I'm small enough
Be a new me

I'm a bad woman
I'm a bad
I'm a bad, bad woman
I'm a bad woman
I'm a bad
I'm a bad, bad woman

Hey!
Shе's a bad, bad, bad
She's a bad, bad, bad
She's a bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad woman
I'm a bad woman
I'm a bad
I'm a bad, bad woman

Quiet keepеr of the peace
I stand there swaying to a beat
Where I'm no sorrow, I'm no fear
I'll never let that sadness near
Still I'll get swallowed by the black
That dog will find the things I lack
And in his stomach I will swim
And never let another in
So I must shout it loud
And for that, I'm not shining
I'm no star
I am just woman, as I come
As I come
