Billy Idol - Promises Promises Lyrics
The first[last? ] lot make a few mistakesThey didnt die young, they got big waistsWe got let down at the back of earls court[+and? ] we sware that night wed never get caughtCos we were smarter than they were (they were)We started out with guitars and hateWith our rooms in the clouds we could hardly waitOur legs apart, our amps up highThe stage caught fire (then? ) the charts blew upAnd we play more than they do (they do)Promises promisesDo you remember the promises promises - I do-Do you remember the promises promises - I do-We made our shirts with sprays and knivesThen we saved up for weeks for malcolms stridesOur hair was short we said what we thoughtWed never be scared [wed] never be boughtNever sell out like they did - they didPromises promisesDo you remember the promises promises - I do-Do you remember the promises promises - I do-Soon youll get your gear form marks and sparksPunkll take over top of the popsThink youre having a real cool time?Watch out kid youre next in line - oh yeahDo you remember the promises promises - I do-Do you remember the promises promises - I do-Where were you in 75When there werent no gigs and we were jive(promises promises promises remember)No one gave a shit for our rocknroll dreamR men laughed re-release the cream(promises promises promises remember)And they thought we were stupidAnd they thought we were stupidAnd we promised wed get back get backDo you remember the promises promisesDo you remember the promises promisesWhat I do, what I do, what I do, whatI do, I do, I do, what I do, what I doPromises promises promises rememberPromises promises promises rememberPromises promises promises rememberPromises promises promises rememberPromises promises promises rememberPromises promises promises rememberPromises promises promises rememberPromises promises promises rememberPromises promises promises remember
