    Lyrics
    We are guilty,
    We are beyond hope
    We beg to differ
    We are a terminal case
    Press darlings, press darlings, press darlings
    Press darlings, press darlings
    We depress the press darlings
    We're on the outside
    But we're not looking in
    We are the Vaseline gang
    We don't play your little games
    Press darlings, press darlings, press darlings
    Press darlings, press darlings
    We depress the press darlings
    And if evil be the food of genius
    There aren't many demons around
    If passion ends in fashion
    Nick Kent is the best-dressed man in town
    Are we different? No
    We are exactly the same
    There are no boxes for us
    The ones you love to hate, so read on!
    Press darlings, press darlings, press darlings
    Press darlings, press darlings
    We depress the press darlings
    And if evil be the food of genius
    There aren't many demons around
    If passion ends in fashion
    Bushell is the best-dressed man in town
    (you can say that again, the scruffy sod!)
    Press darlings, press darlings, press darlings
    Press darlings, press darlings
    We depress
    Press darlings, press darlings, press darlings
    Press darlings, press darlings
    We are the press darlings
    The press darlings
    The press darlings
    The press darlings
    (and they tell fibs!)

    I’m so glad I found this album in my teens. I felt such a connection to his music when nobody else I knew got it. I silently sang his lyrics into my hairbrush with the same passion in me as he delivered em. My god how at nearly 50yrs old now I see him as a foreseeing prophet, a lyrical genius who’s being was so meant to be. Thank you

      I have been a fan for nigh n 40 years now and never get tired of listening to them. Even Adam's solo stuff gets played a lot by me. Love them/him :-)

      I was into the original Ants in 1978 all their best stuff was before the Dirk stuff, like this song originally done in 1977 shame this wasn't on the UK album all the songs on B. Sides on their singles in the early 80's were originally early Ants songs re recorded, I remember their last ever in Camden in 1979,rest of the band formed Bow Wow Wow Adam got Marco in for Ants mk2 rest is history as they say.

      I discovered this at 17, and my friends thought that I was crazy...that was 1981, and it sounds just as good to me now, as it did 40 years ago!
