lyrics

The black sheep
black sheep
black sheep saw the moon.
Then the black sheep
black sheep
knew what to do.

They read the sky
saw a shooting star fall down
Then the black sheep
knew it was time to come to town

If you ever meet a black sheep
Don’t give em any rules
If you think you can tame em
Then you’d become the fool
If you tell em to go right
They’ll go left instead

When you tell em to follow
They refuse to be led

The black sheep
black sheep
black sheep doing wrong

The black sheep
black sheep
Sing this little song
Ain’t got no family
Ain’t got no home
Ain’t got much money
or shelter from the storm

But I know
the names of the planets and the spheres
And I know what the falling star
meant to me this year

The black sheep
black sheep
black sheep saw the sign
Then the black sheep
black sheep
Circled up side by side

Then lookin’ each other in the eye they said
I’m bad
I’m bad, alright
I’d rather be bad and unruly
I’d rather be bad next to you truly

I’m bad
I’m bad, alright
So bad
So bad
So bad and I can’t go back
So bad and I can’t go back
So bad and I can’t go back
To being white

Musical firebrand Shara Nova (formerly Worden) has continued to weave her own way through pop, experimental and classical worlds, this time landing squarely on the dance floor with A Million And One. Nova has marshaled the influences of a youth spent listening to Detroit radio into a visceral love letter to the city, an electronic pop record both vulnerable and full of a fierce fighter's spirit. ... more
