Janet Jackson
Janet Jackson "Black Cat" (Official)
Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814 1990 Written By Janet Jackson All the lonely nights I spend alone Never around to love me You're always gone Cause you're hangin out Breakin' the rules Oh the man has come Looking for you You're a rebel now Don't give a damn Always carrying on With the gang I'm trying to tell you boy It's a mistake You won't realize Til it's too late Don't understand Why you insist On ways of living such a dangerous life Time after time you stay away And I just know that you're telling me lies Black cat Nine lives Short days Long nights Livin on the edge Not afraid to die Heart beat Real strong But not For long Better watch your step Or you're gonna die You're so together boy But just at a glance You'll do anything If given a chance Scheming, plannin lies To get what you need So full of promises That you never keep Don't you tell yourself That it's okay Sick and tired of All of your games And you want me to stay Better change Makes no sense to me Your crazy ways Black cat Nine lives Short days Long nights Livin on the edge Not afraid to die Heart beat Real strong But not For long Better watch your step Or you're gonna die
