Sex Pistols Lyrics
 | | Let's get one thing straight: the Sex Pistols did not "invent" Punk -- in fact, they were modeled after New York rockers the Heartbreakers. Piddling technicality aside, not since Elvis had a single act caused such a ruckus. Though their career was extremely short-lived (lasting from November 1976 to January 1978), their impact on rock 'n' roll -- and popular culture as a whole -- is absolutely immeasurable. By now the story of their birth is legend. Manager Malcolm McLaren owned a small boutique, original bassist Glenn Matlock (later replaced by Sid Vicious) was an employee. Guitarist Steve Jones, drummer Paul Cook and vocalist Johnny Rotten were regulars. Soon the simple coupling of Jones' aggressive guitar work and Rotten's total irreverence for authority had galvanized a growing legion of disgruntled, lower class youth and earned them an official ban across their home country. More than that (and at risk of aligning them with Situationism, Marcus-style), the Pistols were an assault on the norm by its outcasts, a powerful force that made kids around the world (and, paradoxically, the corporate music establishment) feel OK about rebellion. They may not have invented Punk rock, nor operated on the principles that would later define it, but there wouldn't have been a Punk rock movement without them. |

Sex Pistols Song Lyric:
Rock’n’roll Swindle
People said we couldn’t play
The called us foul-mothed yobs
But the only notes that really count
Are the ones that come in wads
They all drowned when the air turned blue
’cos we didn’t give a toss
Filthy lucre, ain’t nothing new
But we all get cash from the chaos
The time is right to do it now
The greatest rock’n’roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
E.m.i. said you’re out of hand
And they gave us the boot
But they couldn’t sack us, just like that
Without giving us the loot
Thank you kindly a & m
They said we were out of bounds
But that ain’t bad for two weeks work
And 75,000 pounds
The time is right to do it now
The greatest rock’n’roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
The time is right to do it now
The greatest rock’n’roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
I just wanna play with my hand
Are you good enough for me
Hiya boys I’m the choosen one
Can’t you fucking see
I’m a jealous God and I want everything
And I love you with a knife
I’ll take you, if you’re ready for me
And I’ll give you my life
The time is right to do it now
The greatest rock’n’roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
The time is right for nickey’s special
The greatest rock’n’roll star
The time is right for me, now!
Get This Ringtone
