THE NIGHTMARE FINALLY SODDED OFF STYLE OF MUSIC: British horror-comedy rock [Intro — Spoken British Male Voice] Right, listen up, you lovely bunch of disasters! Sex, drugs, rock ’n’ roll… Bloody hell, what a state! But that was then, mate. I don't live like that any more! [Verse 1 — Male] Cocaine, meth, and a rock ’n’ roll show, Madness everywhere I’d go. Ghosts were screaming, vampires danced, Even Satan had his underpants! Kissing in the kitchen, shouting in the hall, Some daft bloke tried to headbang through a wall. I thought that chaos was the life for me, Till the nightmare stole my sanity! [Chorus — Male with Female Backing] MALE: Sex, drugs, rock ’n’ roll and fright! FEMALES: What a bloody mess tonight! MALE: Lost in darkness, lost my way! FEMALES: Not any more, love! Not today! ALL: I've kicked that nightmare out the door, I ain't that person any more! Turn it up and let it roll, I'm taking back my bloody soul! [Verse 2 — Male] The devil wore a leather coat, A zombie tried to clear his throat. The bass went BOOM, the windows shook, A ghost came running with a horrified look! I laughed at first, then faced the truth, I'd lost too much of my wasted youth. So I asked for help and changed my track, Found a better life and never looked back! [Bridge — Spoken, Quiet British Voice] Listen, mate… Whatever you've been through, your past ain't your future. You can turn it round. You can start again. And that's no joke. [Final Chorus — Full Band, Female Harmonies] MALE: Sex, drugs, rock ’n’ roll and fright! FEMALES: Leave the bloody past behind! MALE: Found my feet and found my way! FEMALES: Go on, love! Have a better day! ALL: I've kicked that nightmare out the door, I'm not that person any more! Raise the volume, let hope begin, The real bloody victory is learning to win! [Outro — Spoken Male, British Accent] The nightmare's gone, the sun is out… Now, who's nicked me bloody biscuits? [Female Voice, Laughing] Oh, give it a rest, you daft sod! [Final Guitar Crash — End]
