Steve Strange!
You was a Punk in '77
and you was a Skinhead in '78
You tried Mod but you' too late,
changing changing all the time
[Chorus]
And you was a Punk too late
And you was a Skinhead too late
And you was a Mod too late
And you was a Ted too late
Poseur poseur standing there
You change your style every year
Once straight but now a queer
You change your style every year
[Chorus]
New Romantics your'e too elite
You aint worthy to kiss me feet
Your'e looking down on all you meet
New Romantics your'e too elite
[Chorus]
Fucking Wankers
