Rebels Without Applause

Gang's all gone
And I smoulder on
I who saw them leave
I cried bereaved
One by one
I saw them stall
Rebels without applause

The gang's all gone
And now I am the only one
No more to give
Too late to live
The last star on the bill
I see them still
Rebels without applause

Bawdy boys of song
And girls all gone wrong
I loved them all
Bawdy boys of song
And girls all gone wrong
I loved them all

The gang's all gone
From dark to light
Like lost children go
Because we must do
And the blue flu must come for you
Rebels without applause

Bawdy boys of song
And girls all gone wrong
I loved them all
Bawdy boys of song
And girls who all went wrong
I loved them all

Generation X
And X-Ray Spex
We loved them all
I see them still
I see them still
I see them still
I loved them all

I loved them all
I loved them all
