I love the bit near the the end where he does the tiny, "Eh?!" Played it to my son the other day and he was creased up with laughter and was singing it all day.
For anyone that may be interested, because I could not find this information anywhere on the net but just happen to know the answer already, the answer to the question " Who Killed Bambi " ? in "The Great Rock And Roll Swindle " is, James Aubrey. This was the same actor who played Ralph in the 1963 film "the Lord Of The Flies" and played Gavin Sorenson in the controversial 1976 TV series " Bouquet Of Barbed Wire". James died in 2010 of pancreatic cancer.
Love the soundtrack, and have for decades ... so how is it that I have never watched the movie? Heck, I even read / own the Michael Moorcock tie-in novel, featuring Jerry Cornelius!
When I was a young lad me and a couple of other lads used to sing this at work just to piss the old foreman off. After a few minutes a hammer would come flying through the air.
All these years I thought he was saying "..rock-n-roll library...". I even explained to my kids that there was such a thing as a "Rock-n-roll" library - "Just listen to this song" I used to say... Now I have to try and explain that it was all a mistake!
Gentle, pretty thing, Who only had ONE spring! You bravely faced the world, Ready for anything! I'm happy that you lived, And your life is mine. What I have, except to cry, SPIRIT NEVER DIE!

Some say Jonathan Richman invented Punk single-handedly with the song "Roadrunner". The Brits turned the whole thing into a kind of comedy / fashion act and tried to convince the kids in America that indeed they, the Brits invented Punk. The title "Who killed Bambi" was the title of a Russ Meyer film project about punk rock that failed to materialize.
Back when we had songs which actually meant something - singing about stuff we could actually relate to because it spoke to us about the reality of our lives. Kids today just listen to meaningless nonsense.

What's with the aeroplane scene at 1.03 till 1.20? I don't remember that!
They had to edit out the scene where Mary Millington went down on Steve Jones in the cinema,....

Can somebody inform me what exactly this is? I'm an 18 year old black guy. I'm lost but I love this song.
hard to explain Bud but it's all jumbled up in the UK punk scene despite Ed Tudorpole being somehow linked to the Royalty from centuries before
