This was the first Clash song that I heard... Even today this song can be related: to the current neo-punk surge... everyone going with the fashion to become a 'punk' ("They knew how to pose") but without a cause to fight for.
I can think of many... how people in authority abuse their power over others... how the world today revolves around image to get you anywhere in life... how everyone is allowed their own opinion as long as it's the same as the norm...
I refuse to conform!
Unfortunately today's neo-punks fight to look 'cool'. Shame that punk has become popular over the last 2 years... giving a bad name to old-school punks.
I always was under the impression that punk was about change.
Today, it's about looking the same.
(or looking like Avril Lavigne)
Better shut up before I'm arrested for breaching the laid-down rules of political correctness...
