lyrics

Jubilee, street party
It might as well be 1953
30 years, after the war
London was a dump and life was a bore

CHORUS
But in '77, I bunked off school
'77, I broke the rules
'77, I first got drunk
'77.... I WAS A PUNK!!

Bolan hit a tree & Elvis croaked
Virginia won with a backhand stroke
Favourite on the telly was Jacques Cousteau
Biggest selling album? fucking ELO!!

CHORUS

Cheesecloth shirts and hippy vans
Purple loons and 'Far Out Man'
Rick bloody Wakeman in a glittery gown
The 60's were dead but they wouldn't lie down, until …

CHORUS


(Talking)
Go to John Menzies, buying The Stranglers
Farrah Fawcett giving me a bone in me Wranglers
Paul McCartney? Mull of Kintyre?
I did the world a favour, chucked it on fire
Wombles on the telly, dad's on the dole
Hong Kong Phooey, Morocco Mole
Digital watches, buttons on the front
Gary GLITTER IS A C*NT!!

CHORUS x 2

about

The Outbursts London, UK

Anarchic no-nonsense nonsense from a proper London punk band singing short snappy songs with absurd topics and surprisingly good vocal harmonies.

Don’t expect politics, philosophy or politeness but you'll go home with a tune in your head, probably about furry breasted aliens or sex toys!

Their mums can't be ashamed of them, they're all dead.
