(lyrics are written by Jarvis Cocker)

I woke up in the morning
And all the bells were ringing
My eyes could see the glory, baby
Could hear the song they’re singing
You only get to see the light
Just one time in your life

Black magic that blows your mind away
Takes you somewhere that you want to stay
You only get to stay one day
Oh that cold black magic

Is there anything more wretched
Than to just have caught one sight?
The eyes that saw the glory have been
Have been blinded by the light
And it’s the true believers that crash and burn
But there ain’t no way I’m ever gonna learn

Black magic that blows your mind away
Takes you somewhere that you want to stay
You only get to stay one day
Oh that cold black magic

We can’t escape – we’re born to die
But I’m gonna give it a real good try
Because nothing comes close and nothing can compare
To black magic, yeah yeah yeah
Black magic, yeah yeah yeah
Black magic, yeah yeah yeah
Black magic, yeah yeah yeah
Black magic, yeah yeah yeah
Black magic, yeah yeah yeah
Black magic, yeah yeah yeah
Black magic, yeah yeah yeah
Black magic, yeah yeah yeah
Black magic, yeah yeah yeah
Black magic, yeah yeah yeah
Black magic, yeah yeah yeah
