Kennedy died in '63
Poor john.f-
Kennedy died in '63
Poor john.f-
Kennedy
No more messing 'round
Playing with monroe
No more turning on
The middle aged ladies
All I remember
Was his sporty young hairstyle
All I remember
Was the catholic day
Kennedy died in '63
Poor john.f-
Kennedy's wife
With his brain
On her knee
Poor jacky-
Kennedy's wife
With his brain
On her knee
Poor jacky-
Kennedy
Poor jacky-
No more rocking chairs
Sitting on the front porch
No more soft drugs
Playing the space race
All I remember
Was you levi sta-prest
All I remember
Was the catholic day
I see the chickens have come home to roost (5x)
Catholic Day
Catholic Day stands as a distinctive song in the early discography of Adam and the Ants, capturing the band's signature blend of post-punk energy and theatrical flair. Released during a period of rapid evolution for the group, the track showcases the sharp rhythmic drive and eccentric vocal delivery that defined their initial wave of popularity. The song reflects the band's ability to merge punk rock aggression with a sense of historical drama, a stylistic approach that would later influence the broader new wave movement. As part of their growing catalogue, the recording highlights the group's commitment to creating memorable, character-driven music that resonated with audiences seeking something beyond standard rock conventions.
