never has this songs message seemed more relevant than now, during this weeks utterly insane, childish behavior of the british people as a whole.
this may be the actions of just a few, but quiet tolerance on the part of the many creates a very powerful and dangerous permission. one they must see their obligation to act upon, risk disapproval and dare to CHANGE SOMETHING !!
nothing changes until something changes, & we all must bear that responsibility.
Sheer brillance from these lads back in 1982. Don't overlook the production value as well as the genius lyrics, LISTEN! The perfect novel with each chapter falling perfectly into place. This should be a Broadway play for sure, it's all here, LISTEN! Fock'n genius I tell ya.....'No Thugs in our House' my ass.....BRILLIANT!
Sad that Youtube wasn't around when these guys came out, then we'd see XTC getting 4 million hits righetously, as appossed to Britney, Lady Ga Ga, and Pink getting all those hits for what some call music. Forever XTC and real talent.
XTC is always fresh - always challenging - my 15 year old son is now enjoying them immensely, and I have been a fan, listening to the same music, since 1983! I am so grateful for intelligent music that is timeless...
This brings back memories - i used to listen to this song over and over as a 13 year old thinking I was not Graham - then I was sent to boarding school and I felt very much like Graham and at boarding school - instead of studying I listened to XTC with my headphones on
wait until germany strikes again. you will be thankful for the people who offend you by having a little fun at the expense of the weak. they will once again give there lifes for the freedom awarded to you to sing disgusting songs like this.
the finest and most wonderful XTC song of all time. an utter classic.

"The insect-headed worker-wife will hang her waspies on the line;
The husband burns his paper, sucks his pipe while studying their cushion-floor;
His viscous poly-paste breath comes out,
Their wall-paper world is shattered by his shout,
A boy in blue is busy banging out a headache on the kitchen
door......"
Wow do they come up with some lyrics. Awesome song!
