Don't know so much about the lyrics Ace, but the opening riff of 'London Calling' is one of my all-time faves. That jagged guitar and the yowling. Unique.

"Homecoming"
by The Teenagers
[Male]
Last week, I flew to San Diego to see my auntie
On day one, I met her hot step-daughter
She?s a cheerleader, she?s a virgin, and she?s really tan
As she stepped out of her massive car
I could only notice she was more than fuckable
I think she was coming back from the game or something
Because she was holding those silly pom-poms
On day two, I fucked her, and it was wild
She?s such a slut
[Male]
I fucked my American cunt
[Female]
I love my English romance
[Male]
It was dirty, a dream came true
Just like I like it, she?s got nice tits
[Female]
It was perfect, a dream came true
Just like a song I?ve been wanting to
[Female]
OK, listen girls:
I met the hottest guy ever
Basically, as I was stepping out of my SUV
I came face to face with my step-cousin or whatever, who cares?
Anyway, he was wearing skinny jeans, had funky hair
And the cutest British accent ever
Straight away, I could tell he was rocker
From his sexy attitutde and the way he looked at me
Mmmmmm, he is totally awesome
Oh my god
I think I?m in love
[Male]
I fucked my American cunt
[Female]
I love my English romance
[Male]
It was dirty, a dream came true
Just like I like it, she?s got nice tits
[Female]
It was perfect, a dream came true
Just like a song I?ve been wanting to
[Male]
I fucked my American cunt
[Female]
I love my English romance
[Male]
It was so nice to meet you
[Female]
The pleasure was all mine
I do like you
Come to Cancun for spring break
[Male]
I?ll think about it
It could be great
[Female]
And don?t forget to send me a friend request
[Male]
As if?
END.
Its really good song, really catchy.
Google, you tube it. The video is very harmless compared to the lyrics, not one to blast at the workplace i guess!!

'The Ghosts of electricity howl in the bones of her face'
from 'Visions of Johanna' by Bob Dylan
or alternatively, a verse from another great songwriter..
'Everybody knows you love me baby,
Everybody knows you really do.
Everybody knows that you've been faithful,
Give or take a night or two.
Everybody knows you've been discreet
But there was so many people you just had to meet..
Without your clothes
Everybody knows'
'Everybody knows' by Leonard Cohen
or Bob again...
'I wish that for just one time,
You could stand inside my shoes
And just for that one moment I could be you.
Yes I wish that for just one time
You could stand inside my shoes
Then you'd know what a drag it is to see you'
Positively Fourth Street...Bob Dylan

Beer, beer, we want more beer, all the lads are cheering:
'Get the fucking beer in.'
You've got veins in your bodies
We've got Boddies in our veins
We'll out drink anybody
Then we'll go and do it all again.
BARREL'S ROUND by the seminal MACC LADS others lyrics just don't compare !wink!

A better version is on Steve Stevens solo CD from 1989, Atomic Playboys.
I am sure Def Leppard also did this as a cover as well

haha........another classic from Strummer, this was the end line in Magnificent 7 (well, apart from him saying 'fucking long, innit?')
Joe saw this on a News of the World headline and incorporated it into the song, oh and the budgie lived according to the sleeve notes in Clash on Broadway
