XTC - Generals and Majors
Promo for the "Generals and Majors" single. Apparently this was shot at the last minute after a meeting with Richard Branson, hence all the shots of him goofing around, and also the band's presence in the grounds of his manor! All very peculiar. As John Lydon once said, everything's "ho ho chortle chortle" with Branson, isn't it? Jolly japes.

XTC No Thugs in Our House
From their 1982 album English Settlement Lyrics: The insect-headed worker-wife will hang her waspies on the line; The husband burns his paper, sucks his pipe while studying their cushion-floor; His viscous poly-paste breath comes out, Their wall-paper world is shattered by his shout, A boy in blue is busy banging out a headache on the kitchen door. And all the while Graham slept on, Dreaming of a world where he could do just what he wanted to. No thugs in our house, are there dear? We made that clear, We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy. No thugs in our house, are there dear? We made that clear, We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy. The young policeman who just can't grow a moustache will open up his book, And spoil their breakfast with reports of Asians who have been so badly kicked, Is this your son's wallet I've got here? He must have dropped it after too much beer. Oh, officer, we can't believe our little angel is the one you've picked. and And all the while Graham slept on, Dreaming of a world where he could do just what he wanted to. No thugs in our house, are there dear? We made that clear, We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy. No thugs in our house, are there dear? We made that clear, We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy. They never read those pamphlets in his bottom drawer, They never readthat tattoo on his arm. They thought that was just a boys club badge he wore, They never thought he'd do folks any <b>...</b>

XTC That's Really Super, Supergirl
From Their 1986 Album Skylarking. Lyrics: I can't hold you down If you want to fly Can't you see I'm all broke up inside Well just you use your two X Ray eyes Hurt like Kryptonite Put me on my knees Now that I've found out just what you're doing With your secret identities That's really super Supergirl How you saved yourself in seconds flat And your friends are going to say That's really super Supergirl How you're changing all the world's weather But you couldn't put us back together Now I feel like I'm tethered deep Inside your Fortress of Solitude Don't mean to be rude But I don't feel super Supergirl I won't call again Even in a jam Now I realise you could be on a mission Saving some other man That's really super Supergirl How you saved yourself in seconds flat And your friends are going to say That's really super Supergirl How you stopped the universe from dying But you're never going to stop me crying And I feel like you're trying hard To sweep me like dirt underneath your cape Well I might be an ape But I used to feel super Supergirl That's really super Supergirl How you saved yourself in seconds flat And your friends are going to say That's really super Supergirl How you're changing the world's weather But you couldn't put us back together Super Supergirl How you stopped the universe from dying But you're never going to stop me crying Super Supergirl I'm here in your Fortress of Solitude Don't mean to be rude But I don't feel super

XTC Towers of London
From their 1980 album Black Sea Lyrics: Towers of London when they had built you did you watch over the men who fell Towers of London when they had built you Victoria's gem found in somebody's hell Pavements of gold leading to the underground Grenadier Guardsmen walking pretty ladies around fog is the sweat of the never never navvies who pound spikes in the rails to their very own heaven Bridges of muscles spanning so long and high merchants from Stepney walking pretty ladies by rain is the tears of the never never navvies who cry for the bridge that doesn't go in the direction of Dublin And I've seen it in a painting and I've seen it in engraving and I've seen it in their faces clear as children's chalk lines on the paving Towers of London la la Londinium.

From Their 1979 Album Drums and Wires. Lyrics: Happy I'm floating Around on my feet now You make me go dizzy I'm weak at the knees I feel like I'm walking Round ten feet tall Well you say I'm faking And I say don't worry The way that I bubble There's something in the make I feel like I'm walking Round ten feet tall Right, the chemistry is right This boy has reached his height The feeling just goes on and on... From strength to strength I'm ten feet long... I feel like I'm walking Round ten feet tall
