Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
The man at the back of the queue was sent
To feel the smack of firm government
Lingered by the flyposter for a fight
It's the same story every night
I've been hurt and we've been had
You leave home and you don't go back
[Chorus]
Someone told me Monday, someone told me Saturday
Wait until tomorrow and there's still no way
Read it in a book or write it in a letter
Wake up in the morning and there's still no guarantee
[Verse 2]
Only last night I found myself lost
By the station called King's Cross
Dead and wounded on either side
You know it's only a matter of time
I've been good and I've been bad
I've been guilty of hanging around
[Chorus]
Someone told me Monday, someone told me Saturday
Wait until tomorrow and there's still no way
Read it in a book or write it in a letter
Wake up in the morning and there's still no guarantee
[Interlude]
[Bridge]
So I went looking out today
For the one who got away
Murder walking round the block
Ending up in King's Cross
Good luck, bad luck waiting in a line
It takes more than the matter of time
[Chorus]
Someone told me Monday, someone told me Saturday
Wait until tomorrow and there's still no way
Read it in a book or write it in a letter
Wake up in the morning and there's still no guarantee
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
Someone told me Monday, someone told me Saturday
Wait until tomorrow and there's still no way
Read it in a book or write it in a letter
Wake up in the morning and there's still no guarantee
[Outro]
And there's still no guarantee
There is still no guarantee

My favourite song of all time. As a 16 year old apprentice listening to PSB on my Sony Walkman little did I know as a 51 year old man I would still be a huge Pethead. Seen them many times and been lucky enough to meet them on several occasions. Hotspot is amazing and was looking forward to Dreamworld show in Glasgow. Just have to wait till next year. Stay safe Pethead"s everywhere.
This is surely one of the most beautiful pop pieces ever written
Who's listening to this amazing song, 8th of march 2024 ❤️
Absolutely brilliant...! As haunting as it was 30 years ago...
A masterpiece. I'm a working classical musician and the arrangements in this song are simply genius.
I need to share a story about this track...I was a pupil of Gosforth High School and in my first year of English Literature GCSE I had to write a poem. I had nothing to come up with at all as like most kids I had a hatred of homework. I basically had to hand this poem in the next morning so I copied the lyrics of Kings Cross and handed it in....I got an 'A' and then had to read it out to the class....(my English Literature teacher was over the moon and thought it was one of the most insightful poems he'd ever heard..lol)..I have no evidence but my word, but this is a true story....Even better, in the last term of my GCSE a year later I did the same with It Couldn't Happen Here....I'm hoping teachers are a bit more hip to this these days....lol
Му favorite song! With love from Russia! In 1988 I heard this amazing song on our USSR's radio Mayak and still this one is number 1! Thank you!!!
i grew up near kings cross in the 1980s .listening to this 35 years later , this song still sends chills down my spine .This song is so beautiful
Why do PSB songs have such London vibes? I am from India and have been listening to PSB since 1994. And they remain my favourite.
The older one gets, the better King's Cross sounds! What a timeless classic! ❤❤❤
This song is wonderful. It gave me comfort during tough times.
Simply one of the absolute best EVER PSB tracks.
The first time i fell in love, back in the 80´s, this song was the anthem. And i actually had the opportunity to thank Neil Tennant for that in 2003 in Gothenburg. A great man he was.
I spent my youth listening to this song forty years ago, and I still listen to this song with the same feeling. A gem of a melody line.
"You leave home and you don't go back". Deeply haunting lyric line.
How can a 25 year old guy and a 30 year old guy write such a timeless masterpiece? ...Beats me
Still listening in 2021. Still hypnotizing like it was when I listened to it as a Teenager. Such Gems will never be made again...
2024 and still listening to this
Stuck in quarantine and still listening to Pet Shop Boys
