And now, the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
You cunt, I'm not a queer
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I've traveled each and every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
There were times, I'm sure you knew
When there was fuck, fuck, fuck all else to do
But through it all, when there was doubt
I shut it up or kicked it out
I passed them all, I kicked their balls
I did it my way
I've laughed and been a snide
I've had my fill, uh, my share of losing
And now, the tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think, I killed a cat
And when I'm done, not in the die way
Oh no, oh no, not me
I did it my way
For what is a prat? What has he got?
When he wears hats and he cannot
Say the words he truly feels
But only the words of one who kneels
I passed them all, I kicked their balls
And did it my way
And so I face the final curtain
You cunt, I'm not a queer
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I've traveled each and every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
There were times, I'm sure you knew
When there was fuck, fuck, fuck all else to do
But through it all, when there was doubt
I shut it up or kicked it out
I passed them all, I kicked their balls
I did it my way
I've laughed and been a snide
I've had my fill, uh, my share of losing
And now, the tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think, I killed a cat
And when I'm done, not in the die way
Oh no, oh no, not me
I did it my way
For what is a prat? What has he got?
When he wears hats and he cannot
Say the words he truly feels
But only the words of one who kneels
I passed them all, I kicked their balls
And did it my way

@vicious_groupie: how can sid be a hero to anybody? don't get me wrong, i love him kinda obssesed fan, so as i love sex pistols, but i can't imagine how can such a weak person as sid was even though he was anything but vicious deep down represent a role model to somebody. drugs are bad, and sid did a lot. he didn't know how to play a goddamn bass, and actually I think he was the girl in a sid-nancy relation. But hey, thn again, these are my thoughts, so just ignore them if you don't like what I'm saying. @hello_mcfly: yeah, i agree johnny can't sing for shit. he's all wrong. but isn't this what makes him special? I love to listen to him sing, cause he's got his own style. Yeah, he's a bad singer, but it's something about him... I don't know. Hard to explain. I love PiL almost as much as I love SP.
Love this song... John Simon Ritchie died, Sid Vicious still lives! Btw. what's with Green day?! If you like Sid Vicious, then check out blablabla...and Green day. Duh?!
This is actually by the sex pistols, originally by Sinatra... Sid was just a member of the sex pistols.
i hate sid vicious and the sex pistols,. they were a horrible band and sid was a horrible bassist and if i ever see another fuckin sid and nancy doc. i will call the people who made the movie and tell them that they wasted their fucking money
Fuck you, the Sex Pistols were awsome what punks baands do u like all the pop punk crap that ruined punk Sid was awsome and he didnt fucking kill Nancy!!
sid did not kill nancy.. SID VICIOS WAS INNOCENT (the exploited) ..this songs great. and.. SID AND THE SEX PISTOLS ARE INCREDABLEY AWESOME
actually, sid did kill nancy. but it was an accident. he wouldn't have. he loved her very much. and he died because of his mother, which too was an accident.
i think he killed her out of love. i mean, it was an accident, but they had a death pact. read the book nancy's mom wrote about her. or just the end parts about sid and it includes letters sid wrote to nancy's mom. they're really..not vicious. it shows that he had a heart, contrary to what most people think. R.I.P. Sid! oh, and FUCK YOU JESSSICA! sid rocks and so does the sex pistols.
a little known fact about this song is that Sid did this song independent of the Sex Pistols and it appears on his own album as well as the sex pistols album.
its not little known. its something any real fan should know.
