Deny
You're a real wally!
Takin' all them drugs! All of the time!
a lifetime serving one machine
Is ten times worse than prison

I went for London's Burning over Deny. I love Joe's voice on Deny when he sings those "baby I've seen your arms" bits. London's Burning is fine but a bit unmelodic and chanty.
Whatever they are passing off for beer in Tyneside please stop drinking it.

The lyric "Black or white turn it on, face the new religion" ''Everybody's sitting 'round watching television'' is epic. A call to arms to get off your backside and make something happen, it's so punk rock it hurts.
Indeed. I was referring to it musically rather than the great lyrics. Something had to go and I like Deny too much.
Musically ''Deny'' is decent but lyrically urgh.

''Do you think I'm a raving idiot? Just got off the boat'' - not good at all.
I've always been a music above lyrics man!
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Do you think I'm a silly billy
Not a streetwise punk

You're a druggy lump

I've always been a music above lyrics man!
Push come to shove, so am I. I'm not quite a "they could sing the phone book" person, but if I can't "follow along" with the music, the lyrics are never enough to hold my interest.

I can enjoy a good tune with shit lyrics far more than a shit tune with good lyrics.

Deny is GONE!

Technical question. Can I just revise the poll and launch it again or do I have to create an entirely new thread?? I tried to edit it by removing Deny...but now it looks goofy and I don't think anyone can actually vote for the second round??

Yeah, youi'll need to make a new one.

Would a GREAT Clash SURVIVOR Poll of 2019 subforum be useful to keep things organized?
