A musical in three acts by XTC

Cast of characters

GRAHAM, a teenager
MOTHER, a busy housewife
FATHER, a conservative husband
POLICEMAN, a young constable

SCENE: A kitchen in suburbia, one bright Saturday morning

ACT ONE

Narrator: The insect-headed worker-wife will hang her waspies on the
line. Her husband burns his paper, sucks his pipe while studying
their cushion-floor, his viscous poly-paste breath comes out. Their
wall-paper world is shattered by his shout. A boy in blue is busy
banging out a headache on the kitchen door. All the while Graham
slept on, dreaming of a world where he could do just what he wanted
to.

Mother and Father (in unison): No thugs in our house, are there dear?
We made that clear, we made little Graham promise us he'd be a good
boy. No thugs in our house, are there dear? We made that clear, we
made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy.

ACT TWO

Narrator: The young policeman who just can't grow a moustache will
open up his book, and spoil their breakfast with reports of Asians who
have been so badly kicked.

Policeman: Is this your son's wallet I've got here? He must have
dropped it after too much beer!

Mother: Oh, officer, we can't believe our little angel is the one
you've picked.

Narrator: And all the while Graham slept on, dreaming of a world
where he could do just what he wanted to.

Mother and Father (in unison): No thugs in our house, are there dear?
We made that clear, we made little Graham promise us he'd be a good
boy. No thugs in our house, are there dear? We made that clear, we
made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy.

Narrator: They never read those pamphlets in his bottom drawer.

Policeman: They never read that tattoo on his arm.

Narrator: They thought that was just a boys club badge he wore.

Policeman: They never thought he'd do folks any harm.

ACT THREE

Narrator: The insect-headed worker-wife will hang her waspies on the
line. She's singing something stale and simple now this business has
fizzled out. Her little tune is such a happy song. Her son is
innocent, he can't do wrong, 'cos Dad's a judge and knows exactly what
the job of judging's all about. And all the while Graham slept on,
dreaming of a world where he could do just what he wanted to.

Mother and Father (in unison): No thugs in our house, are there dear?
We made that clear, we made little Graham promise us he'd be a good
boy. No thugs in our house, are there dear? We made that clear, we
made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy.

Mother: No thugs in our house!

Father: No thugs in our house!

Complete cast (in unison): No thugs in our house, dear!

Other Xtc song Lyrics
Radios In Motion "There's a message up in China That they getting in Japan Bouncing off an ocean liner Make em shake em in Siam..."	This Is Pop? "In a milk bar and feeling lost Drinking sodas as cold as frost Someone leans in m direction Quizzing on my juke-box selection..."
Statue of Liberty "The first time I saw you standing in the water You must have been all of a thousand feet tall Nearly naked - unashamed like Herod's daughter Your love was so big..."	All Along The Watchtower ""There must be some way out of here," said the joker to the thief, "There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief. Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth, None of them along the line know what any of it is worth."..."
Im Bugged "I'm bugged you all look like insects In your brand new sunspecs I'm bugged I'm bugged I drop a little note through my sympathetics door..."	Spinning Top "I'm like a spinning top Going round and around Well I don't know what's up And I sure don't know what's down..."
Neon Shuffle "Hey - what you going to do now You're standing there and wondering how You've got to make some noise Just like one of the girls..."	Shes So Square "Awful plastic boots that come above her ankle Dayglo mini skirts just like a pop art spangle Digs vanilla fudge buys lipstick by the pound Gets that 'English' look resembles Kath McGowan..."
