TOMORROW PEOPLE
words and music by: Billy Idol/Mark Younger-Smith, 1993

A time warp scene
A cy-fi story
A dirt coloured love
Hey hope for glory
I like to fight,
I kill global oppression
If I quit, no hope of redemption
Blue eyes crying in the rain
For how long
Tomorrow people
I laugh tomorrow gone
For how long
Tomorrow people
Tomorrow people
Well you know I'm free on arrival
Left behind my babe, by guilt of survival
I don't know where I'm runnin' to
I lost my love, lost my hold,
I lost my heaven too
Blue eyes crying in the rain
For how long
Tomorrow people
I laugh tomorrow gone
For how long
Tomorrow people
Blue eyes crying in the rain
For how long
Tomorrow people
I laugh tomorrow gone
For how long, soon come
Tomorrow people
Tomorrow people
Yah come on loud
Now my life is truly misspent
I said
I'm here to tell you, to tell you
That I won't repent
World War III
Death pain
It's fate lets do it again
Tomorrow man
Tomorrow people
Tomorrow man
Tomorrow people
Tomorrow man
A time warp scene
A ci-fy story (Tomorrow people)
A dirt coloured sky (Tomorrow people)
New hope for glory
I like to fight

When I quit, new hope for redemption
(Tomorrow people)
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Tomorrow people
I laugh tomorrow gone
Tomorrow people

ADAM IN CHAINS
words and music by: Billy Idol/Robin Hancock, 1993

Do you want to be hypnotized
All you have to do is move your body
In what ever way feels comfortable for you
Just let yourself sink into the groove
And move
Fix your eyes on a spot
It doesn't matter where
Just fix your eyes on on espot
And begin to relax
Feel your mind and body
Beginning to wind down
Wind down, wind down and relax
If you have any thoughts
Just let them drift through your mind
Like beautiful clouds
Across a clear blue sky
Just through your mind and away from you
Through your mind and away
As you relax
Deeper, deeper and deeper relax
Just let go of stress and tension
Let go of worry and doubt and relax
Imagine a staircase standing in front of you
With ten, wide, safe, stairs
Down, down to a perfect relaxation
Down to peace and contentment
Down towards the happiness that you deserve
And as I count down from ten
Take one step with each number
One step down
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
Deeper, deeper, deeper relax
That's it just let go and relax
You've stolen my heart it's true
You see the shape of things to come
Why give up our lives to the brutes and fools
Tear it all apart
You see the shape of things to come
Why? this now girl
Will we kill each other
Like Adam in chains
I want revenge
Like Adam in chains
I want revenge
Adam in chains
They've broken your heart
Ah yeah, they're gonna tear your world apart
Why make up a lie
And believe it's true
Ah, tear it all apart
I know the shape of things to come
Why this now girl
Will we murder each other
Like Adam in chains
I want revenge
Like Adam in chains
I want revenge
Like Adam in chains
I want revenge
Want revenge
In the mind of a madman
There are colour explosions
An eclipse of emotion
Why tear our world apart
Why tear it all apart
Why tear our world apart girl

NEUROMANCER
words and music by: Billy Idol/Mark Younger-Smith/
Robin Hancock/Ace Mackay-Smith/Greg Stump, 1993

Age of destruction
Age of oblivion
Age of destruction
Age of oblivion
Discovered love,
In the rancid days of ruin
My body's sweatin' toxins,
Of my own demise
Only from space, can you see
How much earth is burning
Smokin' out the innocense inside
The child
It's the age of destruction
In a world of corruption
It's the age of destruction
And they hand us oblivion
Neuromancer and I'm trancing
I'm the Neuromancer--and I'm trancing
Man wallows in his insatiable greed
More in the answer that sweats
From desparate palms
Turn on the lies, the secrets,
Of our desolation,
Or be smothered, by the red hot core
It's the age of destruction,
In a world of corruption
It's the age of destruction
And they hand us oblivion
The neuromancer and I'm trancing
I'm the neuromancer and I'm trancing
I'm the neuromancer--I'm trancing
Trancing
Trancing
and I'm trancing
Denied love in the age of ruin
Suicide toxins of my own demise
In cyberspace, you know how much
The earth ain't learning
Smoking out the man, inside the child--yeah
It's the age of destruction
In a world of corruption
It's the age of destruction
And they hand us oblivion
The neuromancer and I'm trancing
I'm the neuromancer and I'm trancing
Neuromancer--trancing
Neuromancer--trancing
Neuromancer--trancing
Neuromancer
Age of destruction
Age of the neuromancer
Age of destruction
Age of oblivion
Age of destruction
Age of the neuromancer

HEROIN
Written by Lou Reed , "Jesus died...not mine" used by permission
Of Linda Music Corporation,with grateful thanks to Patti Smith.

Well I wish, I was born
A thousand years ago
And I wish that I sailed
The darkened sea
On a great big clipper ship
Goin' from this land into that
In a sailors suit and cap
Away from the big city -
Away from the big city
Where a man cannot be free
Of all the evils in this town
And of himself and those around
And I'm closin' in on death
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know
Ah - Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine
Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine
I don't know just where I'm goin' - Ahh
But I'm gonna try for the kingdom
if I can - yeah
'Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man
When I put a spike into my vein
And I tell you things aren't quite
the same
It's a mainline to my pain
Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN
Jesus died for somebody's sins
(I can feel it)
But not mine - HEROIN
I said, Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN
I have made a very big decision
I gonna try to nullify my life -
you know
I get so low and then the smack flows
I don't care I'm gonna make it my wife
Because when the blood begins to flow
And shoots up the droppers neck
And I'm closin' in on death
You can all go take a walk
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know
Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN
Jesus died for somebody's sins
(I can feel it)
But not mine - HEROIN
I said, Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN
I said, Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN not mine,
HEROIN, smack attack
Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN
Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN
Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN
Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN
Smack attack
Don't touch that needle
V.R. H E R O I N
V.R. H E R O I N
V.R. HELL H E R O I N (forever)
And I'm closin' in on death
H E R O I N

SHANGRILA
words and music by: Billy Idol/Mark Younger-Smith, 1993

I'm bathing in warm liquid colour
Feel every cell in my body is music
Floating in hyperspacial sound
Visualizing the landscapes of my mind
I'm opening the door to inner space
I'm feeling the vibrasound
We can live forever
We can live forever
Strike that gong
We can live forever
Our love can live forever
In shangrila
Transform with inner guidance
To a place of peace and paradise
(Oh what a feeling)
Relax let your thoughts drift away
(Oh what a feeling)
Live in belief and harmony
(Chance of freedom)
We can live forever
We can live forever
Stike that gong
We can live forever
Our love can live forever
In shangrila om
In shangrila om
Access your new state of mind
Dedication discipline
Searching the sensory science
Has resulted in shangrila
We can live forever
(Forever & ever & ever)
We can live forever
Our love could live forever
In shangrila
We can live forever
(Forever & ever & ever)
We can live forever
Strike that gong
We can live forever
In shangrila om
A piece of a dream
The color of green
The color of healing
In shangrila
Color of love
In shangrila
I feel the sacred healing chants
I feel the moment
Of my death
I feel the higher learning
I feel the realization of forgiveness
Compassion and loving kindness

THEN THE NIGHT COMES
words and music by: Billy Idol/Mark Younger-Smith, 1993

In this world of wild illusion
My room cold as the grave
Yes she knows I never pull my shade
Is it a fear, fear of madness
Or some strange alchemy
Is it a fear of fear itself
I think I'll get deranged
Then the night comes
I'm gonna be free
[Never enough then the night comes]
Then the night comes
I'm gonna be me
Never enough, haunts my psyche
Never enough, forever
Never enough as I begin to shroooom
Here she comes so wild so horny
My sony eyed medusa
She's acting strange, insane
Oh yeah, we're gonna get deranged
Then the night comes
She's gonna be free
Yeah, then the night comes
I'm gonna be me
Then the night comes
Baby make me
If the devil comes
He's gonna tangle with me
I take some GHB
I feel love, joy
And wonderful ringing music
Now, I just got to be me
We're here now, embrace this madness
We're here now, for sorcery
We're here now, there is no sadness
So take this town and bring it down
When the night comes
I'm gonna be free
[Never enough then the night comes]
Then the night comes
I'm gonna be me
Then the night comes
Yeah, then she comes
Mmm baby, I'm gonna be free
Yeah yeah, then the night comes

MOTHER DAWN
words and music by: Durga McBroom/Martin Glover, 19XX

Hold me, hold me
Breathe the light into me
Hold me, hold me
Mother dawn
Mother dawn
Dancing 'round the fire
Circling the flame
Listen to the shadows calling out my name
They say
Rock me like a baby
Cradle me in the light
Bathe me in a rainbow
Sun restore my sight
Hold me, hold me
Breathe the light into me
Hold me, hold me
Mother dawn (All night long yeah)
Hold me, hold me
Breathe the light into me (All night long yeah)
Hold me, hold me
Mother dawn
Look into the light
Come and take a journey through the land of night
Darkness strokes the face and
Steals away the sight
Night is all around me
Stars are in my hair
I feel them tangled in the secrets we'll find hidden there all right
Reaching through the madness
To the other side
Where the sun is rising
With her arms held wide
Hold me, hold me
Breathe the light into me
Hold me, hold me
Mother dawn (All night long yeah)
(Till the dawn light comes)
Hold me, hold me
Breathe the light into me (All night long yeah)
Hold me, hold me
Mother dawn (All night long)
(I know you're gonna love me)
(I know you're gonna love me)
One star flew against the tapestry of the night
And the earth revolved in perfect symmetry
To a symphony of sun
The moon danced its final bow
As the birth of day
Exploded
In my eyes
Reaching through the madness
To the other side
Where the sun is rising
With her arms held wide
Rock me like a baby
Cradle me in light
You're gonna bathe me in a rainbow
And the sun restore my sight
Hold me, hold me
Breathe the light into me
Hold me, hold me
Mother dawn
Hold me, hold me (All night long yeah)
Breathe the light into me
(Till the dawn light comes yeah)
Hold me, hold me (All night long yeah)
Mother dawn (I know you're gonna love me yeah)
I know you're
Gonna love me
All night long yeah
Till the dawn light comes
All night long yeah
I know you're gonna love me love me
All night long yeah
Till the dawn light comes
All night long yeah
I know you're gonna love me love me
Mother dawn
