Tomorrow People

Performer(s): Billy Idol



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
I kill global oppression
(Tomorrow people)
When I quit, new hope for redemption
(Tomorrow people)

Blue eyes crying in the rain
Tomorrow people
I laugh tomorrow gone
Tomorrow people
Tomorrow people
Tomorrow people

While going the road to sweet Athy, hurroo, hurroo
While going the road to sweet Athy, hurroo, hurroo
While going the road to sweet Athy
A stick in me hand and a drop in me eye
A doleful damsel I heard cry
Johnny I hardly knew ye

With your drums and guns and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo
With your drums and guns and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo
With your drums and guns and drums and guns
The enemy nearly slew ye
Oh my darling dear, ye look so queer
Johnny I hardly knew ye

Where are your eyes that were so mild, hurroo, hurroo
Where are your eyes that were so mild, hurroo, hurroo
Where are your eyes that were so mild
When my heart you so beguiled
Why did ye run from me and the child
Oh Johnny, I hardly knew ye

Where are your legs that used to run, hurroo, hurroo
Where are your legs that used to run, hurroo, hurroo
Where are your legs that used to run
When you went for to carry a gun
Indeed your dancing days are done
Oh Johnny, I hardly knew ye

It grieved my heart to see you sail, hurroo, hurroo
It grieved my heart to see you sail, hurroo, hurroo
It grieved my heart to see you sail
Though from my heart you took leg-bail 
Like a cod you're doubled-up head and tail 
Johnny I hardly knew ye

With your drums and guns and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo
With your drums and guns and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo
With your drums and guns and drums and guns
The enemy nearly slew ye
Oh my darling dear, ye look so queer
Johnny I hardly knew ye

Ye haven't an arm, ye haven't a leg, hurroo, hurroo
Ye haven't an arm, ye haven't a leg, hurroo, hurroo
Ye haven't an arm, ye haven't a leg
Ye're an armless, boneless, chickenless egg
Ye'll have to put with a bowl out to beg
Oh Johnny I hardly knew ye

I'm happy for to see ye home, hurroo, hurroo
I'm happy for to see ye home, hurroo, hurroo
I'm happy for to see ye home
All from the island of Sulloon* 
So low in flesh, so high in bone
Oh Johnny I hardly knew ye

But sad as it is to see you so, hurroo, hurroo 
But sad as it is to see you so, hurroo, hurroo 
But sad as it is to see you so
And I think of you now as an object of woe 
Your Peggy'll still keep ye on as her beau
Johnny, I hardly knew ye 

With your drums and guns and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo
With your drums and guns and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo
With your drums and guns and drums and guns
The enemy never slew ye
Oh my darling dear, ye look so queer
Johnny I hardly knew ye

I Gotta Get Drunk

Covered by multiple other artists



Well I gotta get drunk and I sure do dread it 
'Cause I know just what I'm gonna do 
I'll start to spend my money 
Callin' everybody honey 
And wind up singin' the blues 
I'll spend my whole paycheck on some old wreck 
And brother I can name you a few 

Well I gotta get drunk I just can't stay sober 
There's a lot of good people in town who wanna hear me holler 
See me spend my dollars
and I wouldn't think of lettin' `em down 

There's a lot of doctors that tell me 
I better start slowin' it down 
But there's more old drunks than there are old doctors 
So I think that I'll have another round!

Performer(s): Pat Boone; Paul Evans



I gotta get some money and get it right away
Because my baby she gave me the word today
She's tired of sittin' home each night, she says she's had her fill
And if I don't take her to the dance next week, Johnny will

I checked and found they're sellin' tickets at five bucks each
And all that kinda money ain't within my reach
But if I wanna be the guy who is her only thrill
I'd better take her to the dance next week or Johnny will

Oh, that Johnny, that no-good Johnny
He's been tryin' to steal my lovin' baby away
Sends her candy, sends her flowers
And I never saw her smile the way she smiled at him today

I tried to borrow it from my friends, but they said "no"
Still somehow, some way I just gotta get that dough
My future happiness depends on one ten-dollar bill
'Cos if I don't take her to the dance next week, Johnny will, Johnny will

Oh, that Johnny, that no-good Johnny
He's been tryin' to steal my lovin' baby away
Sends her candy, sends her flowers
And I never saw her smile the way she smiled at him today

I tried to borrow it from my friends but they said "no"
Still somehow, some way I just gotta get that dough
My future happiness depends on one ten-dollar bill
'Cos if I don't take her to the dance next week, Johnny will, Johnny will

Oh that Johnny, Johnny will, Johnny will…....

Turn off your mind, relax and float downstream 
It is not dying 
It is not dying
Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void 
It is shining, oh it is shining
That you may see the meaning of within 
It is beginning, oh it is beginning
That love is all and love is everyone 
It is knowing, oh it is knowing
And ignorance and hate may mourn the dead 
It is believing, oh it is believing 
So play the game, existence to the end 
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the beginning, of the beginning...

Johnny The Fox Meets Jimmy The Weed
Composer(s): Brian Downey; 
Scott Gorham; Phil Lynott
Performer(s): Thin Lizzy; Mordred



Johnny the Fox he called to Jimmy the Weed
He said "Hey man, I know your name"
I seen you cruising with the low riders
Hanging out down on First street and Main

Tuned into and listen to the Hoodoo Rhythm Devils
Around the Bay
They've got some crazy DJs
Send you right out to heaven

Jimmy the Weed for greed was taken aback
Johnny the Fox you old sly cat
Cleverly the Fox concealed his stash
Crisp dollar bills leave no tracks

In the back of a black cadillac
The voodoo music travels
Down Skid Row only black men can go
The shady deal unravels

Johnny the Fox, hot to hustle
Jimmy the Weed won't use no muscle
that cat's so sly, slick and subtle
Johnny the Fox breaks out the bottle

Tuned into and listening to
The voodoo music travels
The beating drum for the lonely one
Sends you out to heaven

Just across Tomorrow Mountain 
There’s a happy city, they say
Where the people are grand and time is planned
So it’s Christmas every day

‘Neath the scotch and soda fountain
There’s a treat in store for us guys
Under cigarette trees, we’ll take our ease
While the cops fan off the flies

There you will be a lucky sinner
With no conscience for your guide
Each horse you pick will be a winner
And the doors of every bank are open wide

For across Tomorrow Mountain
There’s a life that‘s fancy and free
On a platinum street we’ll plant our feet
It’s the land that’s fair to see
Won’t you hurry there with me?

Just across Tomorrow Mountain
Every girl is Queen of the May
And the kitchens, I’m told                            
Are lined with gold
And there ain’t no bills to pay

Can’t you cross that distant mountain
Where it rains Chanel No.5?
And the gutters, I think, are paved with mink
And the diamond bushes thrive

Pigs trot around already roasted
Won’t you have a slice of ham?
Marshmallows bloom, already toasted
And the clouds are made of marmalade and jam

Can’t you see Tomorrow Mountain?
Can’t you watch it glimmer and glow?
It’s a wonderful town that’s upside-down
And it’s full of easy dough
Won’t you pack your bag and go?Just across Tomorrow Mountain

For the morning to appear

In a little while or so, 'Round the corner I will go 
where I'll place the band upon the hand of the sweetest girl I know

Tomorrow morning, as I march down the aisle 
I'll have the cutest bunch of charm hanging on my arm
You just wait'll you see my sweetie and me, what a happy pair we'll be

Des motos et des hommes
Et la Californie
Je roule en tête
Et la bande me suit

Vers les villes fantômes
La vallée de la mort
Et le désert de l'or

Des shériffs de campagne
Nous regardent passer
On dirait des montagnes
Aux nerfs d'acier

Et leurs mains les démangent
De se faire un carton
Ou de me mettre en prison

Et d'attraper Johnny Rider
Et de boucler Johnny Rider
Oui mais voilà, Johnny Rider, c'est moi
Comme un ange venu de l'enfer
Un fou chevauchant dans un bruit
De tonnerre

Ils ont peur de Johnny Rider
Ils voudraient bien Johnny Rider
Oui mais voilà, Johnny Rider, c'est moi
Comme un ange venu de l'enfer
Un fou chevauchant dans un bruit
De tonnerre

Buvant des bières en boîte
Mangeant des hamburgers
Le soir on s'endort à même la terre

Les indiens nous insultent
Et nous jettent des pierres
Pour mieux cacher leur misère

Des paysans hostiles
A nos cheveux trop longs
Nous tiraient dessus en criant mon nom

Car une de leurs filles
A voulu s'évader
Et avec moi s'en est allé
Car elle voulait Johnny Rider
Oui, elle aimait Johnny Rider
Oui mais voilà, Johnny Rider, c'est moi
Comme un ange venu de l'enfer
Un fou chevauchant dans un bruit
De tonnerre

Als vandaag niet een eindeloze weg was
en vannacht een zee van maneschijn
als morgen niet eindeloos ver weg was
zou de eenzaamheid wellicht te dragen zijn

en alleen maar als mijn lief op mij zou wachten
en ik weer zacht haar hart kon horen slaan
zoals zij naast mij neerlag in de nachten
alleen dan zou ik huiswaarts gaan

een vreemd gezicht weerspiegelt in het water
waar een vreemde stem geen woord spreekt van verdriet herken ik evenmin de echo van mijn voetstap
en herinner mij de klank van mijn naam niet

en alleen maar als mijn lief op mij zou wachten
en ik weer zacht haar hart kon horen slaan
zoals zij naast mij neerlag in de nachten
alleen dan zou ik huiswaarts gaan

er is schoonheid in het zilverstromend water
in de gouden stralen van de morgenstond
maar niets ter wereld heeft mij ooit meer bewogen
dan de schoonheid die ik in haar ogen vond

en alleen maar als mijn lief op mij zou wachten
en ik weer zacht haar hart kon horen slaan
zoals zij naast mij neerlag in de nachten
alleen dan zou ik huiswaarts gaan

ja alleen maar als zij daar op mij zou wachten
en ik weer zacht haar hart kon horen slaan
zoals zij naast mij neerlag in de nachten
alleen dan zou ik weer huiswaarts gaan

If today was not an endless highway
If tonight was not a crooked trail
If tomorrow wasn't such a long time
Then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all
Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin'
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin'
Only if she was lyin' by me
Then I'd lie in my bed once again

I can't see my reflection in the waters
I can't speak the sounds that show no pain
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps
Or can't remember the sound of my own name
Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin'
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin'
Only if she was lyin' by me
Then I'd lie in my bed once again

There's beauty in the silver, singin' river
There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky
But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty
That I remember in my true love's eyes
Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin'
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin'
Only if she was lyin' by me
Then I'd lie in my bed once again
