British Invasion 2/20: 'God Save The Queen The Fascist Regime"
Hey!!!! This week's featured artist was punk pioneers Sex Pistols. Here are some lyrics Amanda Palmer wrote about Sid Viscious in her amazing "Ukelele Anthem"
sid vicious played a four-string fender bass guitar and couldn’t sing
and everybody hated him except the ones who loved him
a ukulele has four strings, but sid did did not play ukulele
he did smack and probably killed his girlfriend nancy spungen
if only sid had had a ukulele, maybe he could have been happy
maybe he would not have suffered such a sad end
he maybe would have not done all that heroin instead
he maybe would’ve sat around just singing nice songs to his girlfriend
On that depressing note, Here's The Playlist! (and remember, drugs are bad)
