Billy Idol – Kings Queens Of The Underground Lyrics

  • by
Read Time:1 Minute, 48 Second

Born in a time
That wasnt 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 and Queens of the underground
I dont mean to be profound
But if Im still around
We are still Kings and Queens of the underground

Oh yeah
1984 and Rebel Yell had the floor
All he 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 didnt 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 and Queens of the underground
I dont mean to be profound
But if Im still around
We are still Kings and Queens of the underground

Ooh, ooh, golden years
Ooh, ooh, golden years
Ooh, ooh, golden years
Ooh, ooh, golden years

Sold all my vinyl, it went up my arm
And I thought rock and roll
Couldnt do me no harm
Now Im rolling a joint and Im dressed in black
If we lose the music baby, we can never go back

And if youre here tonight
And you hear these sounds
We are still Kings and Queens of the underground
I dont mean to be profound
But if Im still around
We are still Kings and Queens of the underground

Jonesy said, Bill, dont be profound
If you are still a King of the underground
If you hear my voice
And you dig these rebel sounds
Still Kings and Queens of the underground

Here tonight
I wanna dig these sounds
Im still a king of the underground
If you hear my voice
Dig these rebel sounds
We are still Kings and Queens of the underground

Ooh, ooh, golden years
Ooh, ooh, golden years
