This is a song called, “I Can’t Do Anything.” It is so cool.
Poly Styrene is the singer’s name, she was 15 years old when she started singing in this band, back in 1977. I don’t know her real name. I don’t want to know it. She’s always just Poly Styrene. That’s good enough.
I can’t write and I can’t sing, I can’t do anything.
I can’t read and I can’t sell, I can’t even get to hell.
I can’t love, and I can’t hate, I can’t even hesitate,
I can’t dance and I can’t walk, I can’t even try to talk.
Freddie tried to strangle me with my plastic popper beads,
but I hit him back with my pet rat.
Yeah I hit him back with my pet rat.
I can’t spit and I can’t kiss, I can’t even speak this.
I can’t read and I can’t sell, I can’t even get to hell.
I can’t love, and I can’t hate, I can’t even hesitate,
I can’t dance and I can’t walk, I can’t even try to talk.
