You're not gonna be afraid Now it's a little late
[Chorus]
Bm A Em
Black gold is the colour, the dawn never comes
D A Bm
And we don't answer when you're wrong (Black gold like no other)
A Em D A Bm
Did we ever belong? Just take them on and then we're gone (Black gold is the colour)
A Em D A
The dawn never comes, and we don't answer...

Our superheroes, well, where are they now?

Put your foot down till the petrol runs out
