At least for now, I'll take your word for it.

Pity Lydon hasn't done much since the mid-80s.
He calls Bono "Bozo."
Such a comedian. He should do spoken word—it seems that HR has found it a decent source of income since he too hasn't done much (good) music these past 20-25 years.
He could be wrong, but then again, ............ he could be right.
He could be black, but he could be white.
or
He could be white, but he could be black.
Anger is an energy—save maybe for flagging music careers.

It would likely be a quick comparison.
About 4 years after the Filthy Lucre tour:
Didn't the Sex Pistols have a song called
New York City?
Was it consoling after 911?
"In New York I lost it all.
to you and your vices.
Still I'm staying on and figure out,
my mid-life crises."
"See the sun rise over her skin.
Don't change it.
See the sun rise over her skin.
Dawn changes everything.
Everything."
