Billy Idol — Kings & Queens Of The Underground

Born in a time that wasn’t made to last. In 1977 it went fast Johnny told us to rise, not to give a shit And then ‘Kiss me deadly’ and we had a hit Last night in the Roxy we fucked on the floor Shot up in the bathroom and said we were bored But if you are here tonight – And you hear these sounds Then we are still Kings and Queens of the underground I don’t mean to be profound but if I’m still around Then we are still Kings and Queens of the underground 1984 ‘Rebel Yell’ had the floor And all we said was ‘more more more’ Well I touched you with my ‘Eyes Without A Face’ I was ‘Hot in the City. Yes I thought I was ace But I didn’t know then when I was in your front room On MTV baby I was high as the moon Oooh Golden years Oooh Golden years Oooh Golden years Oooh Golden years Sold all my vinyl – It went up my arm And I thought rock n roll couldn’t do me no harm Now I’m rolling a joint, yes I’m dressed in black If we lose the music baby we can never go back Jonesy said, ‘Bill, don’t be profound If you are still a King of the underground’ If you hear my voice, dig these Rebel sounds Then we are still Kings and Queens of the Underground If you hear my voice and I’m still around… Then we are still Kings and Queens of the Underground Oooh Golden years Oooh Golden years Oooh Golden years Oooh Golden years
