I am angry I am ill and I'm as ugly as sin my irritability keeps me alive and kicking I know the meaning of life, it doesn't help me a bit I know beauty and I know a good thing when I see it This is a song from under the floorboards this is a song from where the wall is cracked my force of habit, I am an insect Funny enough I always remembered that first line,it was my sister's boyfriend that first brought it in to the house and he had a jacket with the back of it painted with 'Shot By Both Sides',was I at a impressible age,YES and glad of it!
Its been a long time since I heard this one. Cracking song. Howard Devoto, the frontman for Magazine was also the singer for the Buzzcocks on 'Boredom'. I think he got bored and p***** off to form Magazine.
Sex Pistols. Oh yes very punk eh? A manufactured boy band who had their strings pulled by a ginger tosser art stdent. Oh yes very punk indeed. There were proper real punk bands in 1976 but The Pistols were not one of them. In it for the money just like all bands.
