Remember Bubble Puppy from 1969?

My best time in Britain was in the 80s while I was in the service. We went to London, met some British sailors in a pub, left with them to hit a club, stepped outside and they started beating the s-hit out of us. I managed to get one guy in a headlock and pounded his eye until it looked like some f-ucked up alien was trying to pop out of his face. |
Now thats Punk Rock dude WoeeeeeeeeeW.
I don't get it though I admit my roots ignorance but if you go back to 68 and say "this sounds like metal" then why not go to the kinks in 64 and say the same thing? Or maybe if they had sped up Dead End Street a bit to go with the slightly earlier style but kept the lyrics, it would have been a punk anthem?
