Sex Pistols... pro-life? Johnny Rotten... humanitarian? You wouldn't think so. When you think of The Sex Pistols you think of the middle finger, spitting on the crowd, nasty sneers, and Sid Vicious shredding his chest with broken class. Socially conscious? That's a new one.
"Bodies" is the second song on one of the most killer side ones in music history. The first side of "Never Mind the Bollocks" just blows out of the speakers, assaulting you with its aggression, speed, and anger. Those first six songs are over in probably fifteen minutes, but they'll blow you away.
"Bodies" is a disgusting, profanity-ridden look at abortion. I've read conflicting commentary from singer/song-writer Johnny Rotten who said it was pro-life AND pro-choice, but the lyrics seem pretty strongly against the act. How else do you take the lines "She was an animal. She was a bloody disgrace" when talking about the mother? And the chorus of "Bodies! I'm not an animal" or "It's not an animal, it's an abortion"? It's pretty pointed and intense. Definitely not for the kids!
"Bodies" is from the album "Never Mind the Bollocks." To hear the song, click on the icon in the widget jukebox along the side of the blog.
