He…printed the lyrics in black…on a black background.

Thus making them almost impossible to read.

He’s messing with us.

This is the first time I’ve really laughed in two days.

David Bowie…is messing with his fans…from beyond the grave.

Oh god, I love this man.

are you… are you serious? he actually is joking, I bet he thought this would be  fun! :D

Actual picture of lyric booklet; the lyrics to “Blackstar” are on the left (in TINY fucking print, might I add!) There are pictures too, and you can see the pictures just fine, but the words are shiny black on matte black, so you’ve gotta hold it up to a light just the right way, and it kind of makes you look ridiculous, LOL.

I can just picture him saying, “They’re REALLY gonna want to examine THESE lyrics. Let’s make ‘em WORK for it!” [Big, devious, toothy Bowie grin.]
