I'm richie dagger
I can stomp and swagger
I can take on all your heroes
I'm richie dagger
I'm young and i'm haggard
The boy that nobody owns
He sits in his corner like a child despised
A crazy sort of cast comes over his eyes-
That's richie daggers crime
He's that sort of boy that was never much loved
His idea of fun was society's grudge-
That's richie daggers crime
His life was such a mess
And his friends werent quite the best
But he was satisfied-
That's richie daggers crime
Suck me in and spit me out
Devour me in haste-
(Chorus)
He could set your mind ablaze
With sparkling eyes and visionary case
He stood like a remnant from an outbreak past
Wore something in his ear
And boy was he a sass-
(Chorus)
The lyrics RICHIE DAGGER'S CRIME of GERMS is also present in the album Mia: the complete anthology (1993)
The Germs sono una leggendaria band punk rock americana, formatasi a Los Angeles nel 1977. Considerati pionieri del movimento hardcore punk, hanno influenzato profondamente la scena musicale underground degli anni '80. Il gruppo era guidato dal carismatico cantante Darby Crash, noto per le sue performance intense e il suo stile di vita dissoluto. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano «Lexicon Devil», «She's a Sensation» e «What We Do Is Secret». La loro musica, caratterizzata da riff veloci, testi provocatori e un suono grezzo, ha contribuito a definire l'estetica e la filosofia del punk rock. La tragedia segnò la storia della band con il suicidio di Darby Crash nel 1980, ponendo fine al loro percorso musicale in modo prematuro. Nonostante la breve durata, The Germs hanno lasciato un'impronta indelebile sulla musica punk, ispirando generazioni di musicisti e rimanendo un punto di riferimento per la scena underground.
