Whatever Happened to Thamesbeat? |
Cast your mind back to '78 |
On the dole queue with the rest of your mates |
£14.50 for the rest of the week |
But spending 3 pounds on a Pistols LP |
Get the music press for the trend of the weeks |
Whatever happened to Thamesbeat? |
Wonderful game for the trendies to play |
Out of bondage, into a suit the next day |
Take new hearts in being a pleaser or a boyfriend |
And singing lots of love cause they suddenly don’t offend |
Where have all the power poppers gone? |
Whatever happened to Thamesbeat? |
La la la lalala |
La la lalala |
La la la |
Thamesbeat |
The music peers (?) stepped in on the scene |
Tried to make a killing on the next big thing |
But by this time the killer blow up in doubt |
Cause nothing outdates fashion fast as fashion itself |
So where have all the power poppers gone? |
Whatever happened to Thamesbeat? |
La la la lalala |
La la lalala |
La la la |
Thamesbeat |
Another teenage fashion |
Made to measure by displeasure |
Disillusioned with hate and anger |
Safety pins and studded black leather |
Power pop |
Beauty ??? |
fluffy hair |
Power pop |
Black suits and black ties |
Power pop |
People wishing they’d been there |
Power pop |
Fashion outdates itself |
Fashion outdates itself |
Fashion outdates itself |
