LYRICS:
In the villa of Ormen 
in the villa of Ormen 
Stands a solitary candle 
In the centre of it all 
in the centre of it all 
Your eyes 
​ 
On the day of execution 
on the day of execution 
Only women kneel and smile 
ah-ah 
ah-ah 
At the centre of it all 
at the centre of it all 
Your eyes 
your eyes 


In the villa of Ormen 
in the villa of Ormen 
Stands a solitary candle 
at the centre of it all 
at the centre of it all 
Your eyes 

your eyes 

Something happened on the day he died 
Spirit rose a metre and stepped aside 
Somebody else took his place and bravely cried 
I’m a blackstar 
I’m a blackstar 
​ 
How many times does an angel fall? 
How many people lie instead of talking tall? 
He trod on sacred ground, he cried loud-into-the-crowd 
I’m a blackstar 
I’m a blackstar 
I’m not a gangster 
​ 
I can’t answer why 
(I’m a blackstar) 
Just go with me 
(I’m not a filmstar) 
I’m-a take you home 
(I’m a blackstar) 
Take your passport and shoes 
(I’m not a popstar) 
And your sedatives, boo 
(I’m a blackstar) 
You’re a flash in the pan 
(I’m not a marvel star) 
I’m the great I am 
(I’m a blackstar) 
​ 
I’m a blackstar, way up, oh-honey-I’ve-got-game 
I see right so white, so open-heart it’s plain 
I want eagles in my daydreams, diamonds in my eyes 
I’m a blackstar 
I’m a blackstar 
​ 
Something happened on the day he died 
Spirit rose a metre and stepped aside 
Somebody else took his place, and bravely cried 
I’m a blackstar 
I’m a star star 
I’m a blackstar 
​ 
(I)can’t answer why 
(I’m not a gangster) 
But I can tell you how 
(I’m not a flam star) 
We were born upside-down 
(I’m a star star) 
Born the wrong way ‘round 
(I’m not a white star) 
I’m a blackstar 
I’m not a gangster 
I’m a blackstar 
I’m a blackstarI’m not a pornstar, I’m not a wandering star 
I’m a blackstar 
I’m a blackstar 
​ 

In the villa of Ormen stands a solitary candle 
At the centre of it all 
your eyes 


On the day of execution 
only women kneel and smile

At the centre of it all 
your eyes 

your eyes
