Blitz Kids

The Blitz Kids were a group of young people who frequented the weekly Blitz club-night in Covent Garden, London in 1979-80, and are credited with launching the New Romantic subcultural movement. Steve Strange and Rusty Egan co-hosted Tuesday nights and imposed a strict dress code. Among core attendees were Boy George, Marilyn, Alice Temple, Perri Lister, Princess Julia, Philip Sallon and Martin Degville (later to be the frontman of Tony James' Sigue Sigue Sputnik). Crucially, the club lay between two art colleges (St Martin's School and Central School) and it became a testbed for student fashion designers who set London ablaze during the 1980s. These included Stephen Jones, Kim Bowen, Fiona Dealey, Stephen Linard, David Holah, Stevie Stewart, John Galliano, D… more »

Lately I've been propping up
The same bar every night
Drink the same pint from the same dirty line
I'm treading water in-between the paths
Where all the dead ends die
In such a small town for much smaller minds
High fives for love lives
And the only retribution for a future
Oh so bleak
Is laying down the hand your dealt
And betting everything

We've got nothing to lose
We've got everything to prove
We'll put it all on black tonight
We've got nothing to lose
We've got everything to prove
We've been living on the edge a knife
It's time to roll the dice

Save me, I've lucked out growing up
My hands are tied
I'm bored and bled and though
I've shared a bed with most my friends, 
It's anybody's guess
Who'll marry who in the end
Maybe I, should fall in line and let my urges die
Is it too much to ask to let me leave this all
Behind and another way
'Cos I'm not working 9 to 5 another fucking day

We've got nothing to lose
We've got everything to prove
We'll put it all on black tonight
We've got nothing to lose
We've got everything to prove
We've been living on the edge a knife
It's time to roll the dice

This is everything I want and more
I've taken punches and I've kissed the floor
This dead end town won't drag me down
To where I lay before
I'm digging up my roots

We've got nothing to lose
We've got everything to prove
We'll put it all on black tonight
We've got nothing to lose
We've got everything to prove
We've been living on the edge a knife
It's time to roll the dice
