Ironically or perhaps tellingly sounds like they're saying "This is... disrespectable street!" Love XTC, amazing band, really no irony here at all about that!
Didn't realise how good XTC were until very recently. This was one of their best tunes - clearly others thought so too as in the 90's it got shamelessly ripped-off by a certain big-name Britpop band.
@@tk.1471 Blur. The second song on the Parklife album (Tracy Jacks) is a blatant rip-off of this. Link to it is here ruclips.net/video/N2rF4HcW5yk/видео.html
@vincevirtua I have a version of this on Cash Cows - a promo album put out by Virgin (and which was quickly pulled because of a legal dispute between the Professionals and their bass player) and the lyrics are completely different and, quite frankly, much better. Shame they changed them.
@@duncanfraser1644 the version of this, on the album has the original lyrics. Andy was forced to change the words e.g. abortion so they could market the song on BBC and radio in the uk
Such an underrated band
The most underrated musical act in history. IMHO
The one and only XTC❤
Marvellous, inventive video of the lads - and a cracking tune that should have been no. 1.
Always a great day seeing these fellas!

The lyrics are all completely wrong - who changed them?
Andy Patridge.

Probably because they were British and nobody got it

Funniest music video i've seen! A true social criticism against the social order in Britain. Or course they won't like it ...
