"Paint It, Black" is a song released by The Rolling Stones on 13 May 1966 as the first single from the US version of their fourth album Aftermath.[3] It was originally titled "Paint It Black" without a comma. Keith Richards has stated that the comma was added by the record label, Decca. They see a white cube and they need it painted black It just change colors now they want it back to black I see people passing by everywhere the devil goes I have to avert my gaze from El's occult logos I see a line of cars and there all painted black Another fallen star is found dead in her bath I hear candidates promise hope and swear they've changed their ways Like a fresh spewed chemtrail, it just happens everyday No more will our steel sky return to deeper blue What in the Cube World Order do they hide from you? If you look hard enough you'll find the noon day sun Like an old greasy oven light, where did this muck come from? I looked into her eyes to see her heart is black She sold her soul for fame; she'll never get it back I pray before it's too late you'll somehow face the facts It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black I see a red shield with a white cube painted black Your lease has just run out the bank foreclosed your shack I see people passing by everywhere the Elites go We slave under tars above just to fuel the hell below Hmm, hmm, hmm... I wanna see it painted black, painted black Black as night, black as coal I wanna see the sun, blotted out from the sky I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black Yeah
