Born in a time
That wasn't made to last
In 1977 - it went fastJohnny told us to rise
Not to give a shit
And then "Kiss Me Deadly"
And we had a hitLast night in the Roxy
We made love on the floor
We shot up in the bathroom
And said we were boredIf you are here tonight
And you hear these sounds
We are still kings & queens of the undergroundI don't mean to be profound
But if I'm still around
We are still kings & queens
Of the underground1984 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 aceI didn't know then
When I was in your front room
On MTV, baby
I was high as the moonIf you are here tonight
And you hear these sounds
We are still kings & queens
Of the undergroundI don't mean to be profound
But if I'm still around
We are still kings & queens of the undergroundOoh, ooh, golden yearsSold all my vinyl
It went up my arm
And I thought rock and roll
Couldn't do me no harmNow I'm rolling a joint
And I'm dressed in black
If we lose the music baby
We can never go backAnd 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 undergroundJonesy 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 undergroundHere 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 undergroundOoh, ooh, golden years
