...about Punk Music

Punk music was invented by punks as a reaction to Prog Rock (see "Prog Rock"). Famous punks include Sid Vicious, Johnny Ramone, Malcom F1 Mclaren and the fashion designer Tim "Vivian" Westwood. Punk rock is often angry and anti-establishment. Typical lyrics are: "God save the Queen,She ain't no human beanThey made you a moronOut of sticky-backed plastic-a." Punk is very difficult to sing, like opera. Excessive rolling of R's is required, along with an unconvincing cockney accent and a tendency to end every word with "a". As a genre it is well suited to ringmasters and town criers. All punk songs end with a raspberry being blown by the singer. If not, they ought to. The authors remain pledged to making this the case.
