My Way Lyrics
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
And each and every highway
And yet, much more than this
I did it my way
But then again, too few to mention
But I did what I have to do
I´ll see it through with no devotion
Of that, take care and just
Be careful along the highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
I'm sure you knew
When there was nothing
Fucking else to do
But through it all,
When there was doubt
I shot it up or kicked it out
I fought the just as before
And did it my way
I've had my fill, my share of looting
And now, the tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think, I killed a cat
And may I say, oh no, not their way
But no, no, not me
I did it my way
What has he got
When he finds out that he cannot
Say the things he truly thinks
But only the words,
Not what he feels
The record shows,
I've got no clothes
And did it my way

I learned a lot by just reading this stuff, guys.
But anyways -- both this song and Sid weren't meant to be highly acclaimed in a a musical way -- they were highly acclaimed for being so punkass. Someone said it already; he's not a punk rocker, he's a punk.
But yeah, I read everyone's comments and found them very interesting.

r.i.p john Ritchie aka sly (sid vicious)

I thought it was John Beverly (which is how he signs his name in The Filth & The Fury).

John Simon Ritchie/Beverly. Not necessarily in that order, or at least that's what I've gathered. shrugs

r.i.p frank sinatra ...err.. wrong one. blah... this song is great.

dumbass

dumbass

Hmm. I thought it would be on a Sid Vicious search, for some reason.
I love this song. I always listen to it over and over and over and over when it comes on...
named a cat after Sid

when it says: "but dig, what i had to do"
i thought it was really: "but i did what i had to do"
am i right? i saw it dig on two different places but it sounds to me (and makes more sense) that he says "i did"

yeah, you are right die-core, it is but i did what i had to do. i love this song, Sid is the greatest punk rocker that ever lived... R.I.P.
