Billy Idol - Concrete Kingdom Lyrics






I hear cries tonight
I hear cries tonight
Ain't no love
Ain't no life
I hear cries tonight
I hear cries tonight
I hear cries tonight
I hear, I hear
I hear cries tonight
I hear cries tonight
I hear cries tonight
I hear, I hear

Like all of the best, We've been taken
Like all of the lost, we've been had
Pray God, kingdom come, deliver us,
Amen
All life, is it lost, have they won

Ain't no love in a concrete kingdom,
Ain't much life
Ain't no life in a concrete kingdom,
I hear cries tonight
Ain't no love
Ain't no life
Ain't no right,
What's for my son

When all of the good,
Have been taken
Where all of the lost,
Have gone
Ravaged, then raped, annihilation-amen
All life, is it lost, have they won

Ain't no love in a concrete kingdom
Ain't much light
Ain't no life in a concrete kingdom
I hear the cries tonight
Ain't no love
Ain't no light
Ain't no right
Ain't much love in a concrete kingdom,
Ain't much light
What's for my son

I - I wanna know why
I wanna know why,
We're shrinking from the sun
I said now I, I wanna know why
I wanna know why, there's poison - Everyone

There ain't no love, in a concrete kingdom
Ain't much light
Ain't no life in a concrete kingdom
I hear the cries tonight - I hear, I hear

Ain't no love
Ain't no light
Ain't no right
Ain't much love in a concrete kingdom
Ain't much light
Ain't no light - in a concrete kingdom
Ain't no light
Ain't no right
Ain't no light
Ain't no right

What's for my son

    i love this album why is it so hard to find it. stupid music industry.

    c.... w....

    clock w0rk I got it for $10 on ebay

    c.... w....

    @Seabass 2001 So did I -- in a music store, for $10 in 1993:) Then in 2004-05, as a sound-alike, I performed these tracks in my shows. This album was my absolute favorite to perform, next to the "Valley of the Dolls" album be made in Generation X.

  2. T.... C....

    my favorite CD that I own

  3. P.... C....

    Just pure brilliance ! Still blows everything away to this very day !

  4. A.... F....

    DOPE SONG !!!!

  5. T.... B....

    As i have said on another channel. Yeah I know the album was a commercial flop. I went out and got this CD when it was released in 93. In my opinion this record is a masterpiece of song writing and recording engineering. Listen to the lyrics what he is singing about, this record is telling a story about the World outside. Billy Idol was so ahead of the times when he released this in 1993.

    @TOGI BOK Is there any explanation why did this happen? I remember it as it was the 1st cassette (Yes, cassette not CD) i bought in my life. It was about 20 years ago, i was a small kid who had no idea about this album (but hey- Cyberpunk! Must be good :) ...and it is still in top 3 of my favourites.

    T.... B....

    Absolutely. ..

    T.... B....

    The songs on this album speak many truths. Billy Idol was great on this album

    T.... B....

    @Demo Demonek he ruined the cover of heroin and throwing in that line from patti smith? sacrilege.....

  6. b.... ....

    Can't help wondering if this was why the album flopped. Music can be used to inform people and Billy hit on so many points with the album. They can't have people thinking outside of the box and really thinking about the world outside of the viewpoint they want us to have. To use a current example: They want us to be chatting up how scandalous Miley Cyrus is. Chew on the cotton candy and don't think. It's late so I hope everybody gets what I'm trying to say.

  7. T.... ....

    You should say I love this picture! ...and audio of course ;-)

  8. C.... R....

    everyone slates this record but when you step back and compare it to other electronic releases its a decent album. i realy dont get why its so hated

  9. G.... G....

    Algunas canciones escuche y para q buenas

  10. C.... S....

    @moments242 I seriously love the lyrics for this song.
