Go to a cash machine,
To get a ticket home.
The message on the screen,
Says don't make plans you're broke.

It's such a fantastic line, it still deserves a mention.
I'm fairness it wasn't even the first single off the album...
..I got a little carried away.

Been around and seen a lot to shake me anyhow
Begged and borrowed sometimes, I admit I even stole
The worse crime that I ever did was playing rock 'n roll.

Fair comment. Actually the debut single's first lines are pretty good...
Listen to the voice of Buddha
Saying stop your sericulture
Little people like your offspring
Boiled alive for some gods stocking
Buddha's watching, Buddha's waiting

Well this actually is a 'Debut' single, and not a bad one either

I'm going to redeem myself with this (even though I know there's a non charting release before it):-
Sometimes you're better off dead
There's gun in your hand and it's pointing at your head
You think you're mad, too unstable
Kicking in chairs and knocking down tables

You only seen me from the clothes that I wear

Originally the Swankers
I am an antichrist
I am an anarchist.
As best as it can be.
First line of the first single, very powerful entrance to the music scene.

I've come across the desert
To greet you with a smile
My camel looks so tired
It's hardly worth my while

........and the one that started it all and ultimately has made my life a much better place
Is she really going out with him?
Ah!
I gotta a feelin' inside of me
It's kinda strange like a stormy sea

Everytime she walks down the street
Another girl in the neighbourhood
Wish she was mine, she looks so good"
"Time on your side that will never end
The most beautiful thing you can ever spend
But you work in a shirt with your name tag on it
Drifting apart like a plate tectonic"
"Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses"
"I need to be myself
I can't be no one else
I'm feeling supersonic
Give me gin and tonic"

I just wish that Another Girl, Another Planet hadn't been the second Only Ones single.
