People said we couldn't play
The called us foul-mothed yobs
But the only notes that really count
Are the ones that come in wads
They all drowned when the air turned blue
'cos we didn't give a toss
Filthy lucre, ain't nothing new
But we all get cash from the chaos
The time is right to do it now
The greatest rock'n'roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
E.m.i. said you're out of hand
And they gave us the boot
But they couldn't sack us, just like that
Without giving us the loot
Thank you kindly a & m
They said we were out of bounds
But that ain't bad for two weeks work
And 75,000 pounds
The time is right to do it now
The greatest rock'n'roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
The time is right to do it now
The greatest rock'n'roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
I just wanna play with my hand
Are you good enough for me
Hiya boys I'm the choosen one
Can't you fucking see
I'm a jealous God and I want everything
And I love you with a knife
I'll take you, if you're ready for me
And I'll give you my life
The time is right to do it now
The greatest rock'n'roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
The time is right for nickey's special
The greatest rock'n'roll star
The time is right for me, now!
The Sex Pistols were the archetypal punk band, and one of the most important and iconic groups in rock history. Punk-rock had already been suggested as a musical style by the likes of The Stooges, MC5 and the New York Dolls, but it took off in the mid-70s with Patti Smith, Ramones and The Sex Pistols. In particular, the Sex Pistols had a massive effect on British culture, epitomising punk in many ways other than their music. Most importantly, they were anti-authoritarian, rejecting mainstream values and conventional wisdom, reflected in their music which rejected conventional rules. Describing early 70's rock as too extravagant and elitist, punk-rock would be simple and cathartic and available to everyone. They were ugly, behaved like snotty-nosed kids, and they were poor at playing their instruments: the message was that you didn't have to be pretty, friendly or musically skilled to be a rock star, you just had to have something to say. The Sex Pistols released one studio album, *Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols*, in 1977, which became a punk classic and sold millions of copies worldwide. Some of their most representative songs include 'Anarchy in the UK', 'God Save the Queen' and 'Holidays in the Sun'.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
