Here goes

Tell PC McGarry to get himself a mate
And arm themselves with CS Gas, they're gonna be out late.
We've had Cant conformism since nineteen sixty-six
And now subversion is in the air, in the shape of flying bricks

Excellent choice of lyric!!!!


Half Man Half Biscuit - Trumpton Riots.


Now they were one funny band. Some of their other ditties:

Sealclubbing

I left my heart in Papworth General

Fuckin' 'ell it's Fred Titmus


I had a ticket to see them back in 1988ish but they split up about a week before the gig. Thought that was rather inconsiderate. They may well be back together again now.

That's the one.
They're still going strong and have had about 7 albums since they reformed in 1990

Ok, fairly easy one. Mainstream band:

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane

I'd have to take your word on that because although I do know the song, I'm not familiar enough with it to recognize the lyrics
