[Verse 1]

I get home from work

And you're still standing in your dressing gown

Well, what am I to do?

I know all the things around your head

And what they do to you

[Pre-Chorus 1]

What are we coming to?

What are we gonna do?

[Chorus]

Blame it on the black star

Blame it on the falling sky

Blame it on the satellite

That beams me home

[Verse 2]

The troubled words of a troubled mind

I try to understand what is eating you

I try to stay awake, but it's fifty-eight hours

Since that I last slept with you

[Pre-Chorus 2]

What are we coming to?

I just don't know anymore

[Chorus]

Blame it on the black star

Blame it on the falling sky

Blame it on the satellite

That beams me home

[Verse 3]

I get on the train and I just stand about

Now that I don't think of you

I keep falling over, I keep passing out

When I see a face like you

[Pre-Chorus 3]

What am I coming to?

I'm gonna melt down

[Chorus]

Blame it on the black star

Blame it on the falling sky

Blame it on the satellite

That beams me home

[Outro]

Cruel, this is killing me

Cruel, this is killing me
