I remember going to see a support band.. to the buzzcoks after Devoto left to join Magazine, and Pete Shelly beomming the RIGHTFUL ( IMHO) singer..
they were a clubbie band that played to the working class folks of working mens clubs one week and decided to go ” punk”.. my god it was laughable, ya seen where their wrangler flares has been taken in, and the cheeseloth shirts of auld hippies, they came on like 4 jesus’s, still in beards attempting to look the part. maaaan i was embarrased as i knew benny the bass player personally.. he used to reek of sandalwood and say ” hey man” a lot.

how ignorant and ageist we all were bak then :)

its muscular coming from a large muscle we have at back of neck just under the brain it can traverse up leading to headaches when we sing/orgasm. or to shoulder blades. i bet breating in is worse. a shooting pain between shoulder blades at times ? easy sorted with a muscle relaxant from melleril.. its semi stress related. I bet some days you feel you cannot move your neck ? or certain ways you posture your neck eases it ?

muscular and easily sorted.

(Strummer/Jones)

We met when we were in school
Never took no s.hhit from no one, we weren’t fools.
The teacher says we’re dumb
We’re only having fun
We peiss on everyone…
In the classroom

When we got thrown out I left without much fuss
An’ weekends We’d go dancing
Down Streatham on the bus

You always made me pay,
Got me in bad fights,
playing pool all night,
Smokin’ Menthol

I practiced daily in my room
You were down the Crown planning your next move
Go on a nicking spree,
Hit the wrong guy,
Each of you get three…
Years in Brixton!

I did my very best to write
How was Butlins?
Were the screws too tight?
When you lot get out,
We’re gonna hit the town,
We’ll burn it fvckin’ down…
To a cinder!

‘Cos years have passed and things have changed
And i move anyway i wanna go!
I’ll never forget the feeling i got
When i heard that you were home!
An’ I’ll never forget the smile on my face
‘Cos i knew where you would be!
An’ if you’re in the Crown tonight,
Have a drink on me,
But go easy… Step lightly… Stay free…

Hello, hello, hello (ha, ha, ha)

You never listen to a word that I said
You only seen me
For the clothes that I wear
Or did the interest go so much deeper
It must have been
The colour of my hair

The Public Image

What you wanted was never made clear
Behind the image was ignorance and fear
You hide behind this public machine
Still follow same old scheme

Public Image

Two sides to every story
Somebody had to stop me
I’m not the same as when I began
I will not be treated as property

Public Image

Two sides to every story
Somebody had to stop me
I’m not the same as when I began
Its not a game of monopoly

Public image

Public image
You got what you wanted
The public image belongs to me
It’s my entrance
My own creation
My grand finale
My goodbye

Public image
Goodbye
