Peter and the Test Tube Babies are a punk rock band formed from a small town Peacehaven, England in 1978 by Del Strangefish and Peter Bywaters. Due to their humorous tongue-in-cheek lyrics, they have been considered part of the Punk Pathetique subgenre.[1] Peter and the Test Tube Babies were first featured in Sounds magazine in July 1980, and after a John Peel Radio One session, made their vinyl debut on the Brighton compilation album Vaultage 78. They also had two songs on the seminal Oi! compilation Oi! the Album in that same year.[2] They favoured absurd lyrics and strange titles, such as "The Queen Gives Good Blow Jobs."[3] In 1982, they covered the chart-topping Gary Glitter hit "I'm the Leader of the Gang (I Am)" on their album Pissed and Proud. They have continued to perform in the 2000s. Their polished, professional live show is in contrast to the non-serious nature of their lyrics.
(If he's late) If he's late she starts to cry.
(She's got a list) She's got a list of things to buy.
(He can't go in ) He can't go in for social mixing.
(There's a plug) There's a plug that still needs fixing.
Louise wouldn't' like it, Louise wouldn't' like it .. ..
(Her claws were in ) Her claws were in, the word was out.
(He tried his best) He tried his best to blow her out.
(She smelt the blood ) She smelt the blood she had the scent.
(Tracked him down) In every night club that he'd frequent.
(He used to be) He used to be fun he used to have mates.
(Spending money) But spending money don't pay the rates.
(It doesn't' matter ) It doesn't matter love I know how you feel.
(How do I feel) We can always go out for a meal.
