Kings & Queens Of The Underground - Billy Idol

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 made love on the floor

We shot up in the bathroom

And said we were bored

If you are here tonight

And you hear these sounds

We are still kings & queens of the underground

I don’t mean to be profound

But if I’m still around

We are still kings & queens

Of the underground

1984 and «Rebel Yell"had the floor

All they 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

I didn’t know then

When I was in your front room

On MTV, baby

I was high as the moon

If you are here tonight

And you hear these sounds

We are still kings & queens

Of the underground

I don’t mean to be profound

But if I’m still around

We are still kings & queens of the underground

Ooh, ooh, golden years

Sold all my vinyl

It went up my arm

And I thought rock and roll

Couldn’t do me no harm

Now I’m rolling a joint

And I’m dressed in black

If we lose the music baby

We can never go back

And if you’re here tonight

And you hear these sounds

We are still kings & queens of the underground

I don’t mean to be profound

But if I’m still around

We are still kings & queens

Of the underground

Jonesy said, «Bill, don’t be profound,

If you are still a king of the underground»

If you hear my voice

And you dig these rebel sounds

Still kings & queens of the underground

Here tonight

I wanna dig these sounds

I’m still a king of the underground

If you hear my voice

Dig these rebel sounds

We’re still kings & queens of the underground

Ooh, ooh, golden years
