Biography

The most famous (and infamous) band of the late 70s British punk scene. Their rebellious image combined with a commercial sound (partly thanks to producer Chris Thomas) created some of the most memorable moments of the 70s - both musical and otherwise. Band Line-up: - Vocals: [b]Johnny Rotten[/b] (John Lydon) 1975-1978 Vocals - Guitar: [b]Steve Jones[/b] 1975-1978 Guitar - Bass: [b]Glen Matlock [/b]1975-1977 Bass - Drums: [b]Paul Cook[/b] 1975-1978 Drums. Replacement: - [b]Sid Vicious[/b] Bass 1977-1978 [i](Replaced Glen Matlock)[/i] The band effectively split up after their 1978 US tour, although Jones and Cook continued to record under the name for another year or so. The original line-up reformed in 1996 for a series of concert tours, and has played live shows off and on since then, and released live recordings. Original line-up, minus John Lydon reformed in 2024 with [a=Frank Carter (2)] on vocals, initially to raise funds for Bush Hall in Shepherd’s Bush, west London, before touring the UK. For copyrights to the band, see [l=Sex Pistols].

LYRICS

Turn the page and it's
The scoop of the century
Dont wanna be L seven I had enough of this
This is brainwash and this is a clue
To the stars who fooled you
Tell me why you can't explain
You're only looking for vinyl yeah
Didn't they fool you they wanna be you

Gimme world war three we can live again
You didn't fool me but i fooled you
You wanna be me yeah You wanna be me
You wanna be someone yeah ruin someone
Yeah, Didn't I fool you I ruined you yeah
Didn't I fool you I sussed you out

I got you in the camera and
I got you in my camera
A secund of your life ruined for life
You wanna ruin me in your magazine
You wanna cover us in the margarine
And now is the time to realize
To have real eyes

Down down down down
And I'll take you down on the underground
Down in the dark and down in the crypt
Down in the dark where the typewriter fit
Down with your pen and pad ready to kill
To make me ill
Down wanna be someone you wanna be someone
Ruin someone
Make it as someone you wanna be me ruin me
A typewriter god a black and white king
PVC blackboard books black and white
I wanna be me
