Lyrics

We're back on black
Spinning 'round at 45RPMs
Back on black
It's crazy but it's true
What was old now is new
Who knew that it was ever coming back?
Back on black

You know they say
Nothing's new under the sun
Everything we've been through
Makes its way on back around
Maybe we'll start an innovation
Circle back 'round to a firm foundation
Let's go

We're back on black
Spinning 'round at 45RPMs
Back on black
It's crazy but it's true
What was old now is new
Who knew that it was ever coming back?
Back on black

I like to think
We are not too far gone
Maybe we have changed our groove
But we sing that same old song
Maybe we'll give an invitation
Circle back 'round to a firm foundation
Let's go

We're back on black
Spinning 'round at 45RPMs
Back on black
It's crazy but it's true
What was old now is new
Yes, it's crazy but it's true
What was old now is new
I may be crazy but I'm true
Something borrowed something blue
Who knew that it was ever coming back?
Back on black
