Something happened on the day he died

Spirit rose a metre and stepped aside

Somebody else took his place, and bravely cried

I'm a Blackstar

I'm a Blackstar

How many times does an angel fall?

How many people lie instead of talking tall?

He trod on sacred ground

He cried loud into the crowd

I'm a Blackstar

I'm a Blackstar

I'm not a gangster

I can't answer why

I'm a Blackstar

Just go with me

I'm not a filmstar

I'm-a take you home

I'm a Blackstar

Take your passport and shoes

I'm not a popstar

And your sedatives, boo

I'm a Blackstar

You're a flash in the pan

I'm not a marvel star

I'm the great I am

I'm a blackstar

I'm a blackstar, way up, oh honey, I've got game

I see right so white, so open-heart it's pain

I want eagles in my daydreams, diamonds in my eyes

I'm a Blackstar

I'm a Blackstar

Something happened on the day he died

Spirit rose a metre and stepped aside

Somebody else took his place, and bravely cried

I'm a Blackstar

I'm a star star

I'm a Blackstar

I can't answer why

I'm not a gangster

But I can tell you how

I'm not a flam star

We were born upside-down

I'm a star star

Born the wrong way 'round

I'm not a white star

I'm a Blackstar

I'm not a gangster

I'm a Blackstar

I'm a Blackstar

I'm not a pornstar

I'm not a wandering star
