0:52Been out all night I needed a bite
0:55I thought I'd put a record on
0:58I reached for the one with the ultra modern label
1:01And wondered where the light had gone
1:04It had a futuristic cover
1:05Lifted straight from Buck Rogers
1:07The record was so black it had to be a con
1:10The autochanger switched as I filled my sandwich
1:13And futuristic sounds warbled off and on
1:27The black hit of space
1:30It's the one without a face
1:32It's the one that doesn't fit
1:35You can only see the flip
1:38The black hit of space
1:41Sucking in the human race
1:44How can it stay at the top
1:47When it's swallowed all the shops
2:16As the song climbed the charts
2:18The others disappeared
2:21Til there was nothing but it left to buy
2:27It got to number one then into minus figures
2:33Though nobody could understand why
2:42The black hit of space
2:44It's the one without a face
2:47It's the one that doesn't fit
2:50You can only see the flip
2:53The black hit of space
2:56Sucking in the human race
2:59How can it stay at the top
3:02When it's swallowed all the shops
3:28I couldn't stand this bland sound any more
3:31So I walked towards my deck to turn it off
3:34All I could see was the B-side of the disc
3:37Which had assumed a doughnut shape with the label
3:38On the outside rim
3:40I reached for the arm which
3:42Was less than one micron long
3:43But weighed more than Saturn and time stood still
3:46I knew I had to escape but every time
3:49I tried to flee the record was in front of me
3:54The black hit of space
3:57Get James Burke on the case
4:00It's the hit that's never gone
4:02Time stops when you put it
