Peter and the Test Tube Babies are a punk rock band formed from a small town Peacehaven, England in 1978 by Del Strangefish and Peter Bywaters. Due to their humorous tongue-in-cheek lyrics, they have been considered part of the Punk Pathetique subgenre.[1] Peter and the Test Tube Babies were first featured in Sounds magazine in July 1980, and after a John Peel Radio One session, made their vinyl debut on the Brighton compilation album Vaultage 78. They also had two songs on the seminal Oi! compilation Oi! the Album in that same year.[2] They favoured absurd lyrics and strange titles, such as "The Queen Gives Good Blow Jobs."[3] In 1982, they covered the chart-topping Gary Glitter hit "I'm the Leader of the Gang (I Am)" on their album Pissed and Proud. They have continued to perform in the 2000s. Their polished, professional live show is in contrast to the non-serious nature of their lyrics.
Folks round here still remember him well, there's many a man with a story to tell.
Cos' that man Trapper and the things he did, made you forget about Billy the Kid.
You'd better hide, you'd better run, you'd better get your gun.
Feared in the North, South, East & West, and with a six gun he was the best.
He wore his gun low with the battle scars, of too many fights in too many bars.
When Trapper and his gang rode into town, none of the locals hung around.
'Cos when he'd shoot he'd shoot to kill, and he never paid his hotel bills.
