Ooh, midnight rider on a subway train
Mexican mud runnin' thru his veins
Switchblade shinin', how he loves to fight
King of the hill, prince of the night
Eyein' up a hurricane, waitin' for the rainbow's end
(For the end)
Hey, hey, hey, don't cha give him no lip
He's a full time captain of a sinkin' ship
No one cares, no one sees

So don't fall in the fire
Don't sleep with the liars
Livin' in color, dreamin' in black and white
And don't dance with the devil
What price can you handle
Livin' in color, dreamin' in black and white

Sad soul lady waitin' on her john
Whatcha gonna do when your looks are all gone
Third rail ready, take you out real fast
Swim in the wine, walk on the glass
Save it for another day, hopin' for another life
Hey, hey, hey, won't cha cut her some slack
Life ain't very funny when you're workin' on your back
No one knows, no one tries

So don't fall in the fire
Don't sleep with the liars
Livin' in color, dreamin' in black and white
And don't dance with the devil
What price can you handle
Livin' in color, dreamin' in black and white

One more trip down the tracks
One more dime for the bag
The mirror's 'bout to crack

Hey, hey, hey, don't cha give him no lip
He's a full time captain of a sinkin' ship
No one cares, no one sees

So don't fall in the fire
Don't sleep with the liars
Livin' in color, dreamin' in black and white
And don't dance with the devil
What price can you handle
Livin' in color, dreamin' in black and white
Livin' in color, dreamin' in black and white
