History: Sham 69 formed in 1976 (the 12 November issue of NME notes they were rehearsing at this time, although only Pursey would remain from this early line-up 12 months later). Sham 69 lacked the art school background of many British punk bands of the time, and brought in football chant back-up vocals and a sort of inarticulate political populism. The band had a large skinhead following (left wing, right wing and non-political), which helped set the tone for the Oi! movement. Their concerts were notoriously plagued by violence, and the band ceased live performances after one of their gigs at Middlesex Polytechnic in 1978 was broken up by National Front skinheads fighting and rushing the stage. Sham 69 released their first single, "Ulster", on Step Forward Records in August 1977, and its success in the independent charts prompted Polydor to sign the band.

Little Bit Of This Lyrics
Sham 69
Who's that face in the council estate
Looks like he's been staying up late
Drug me up and what do I see
A little bit of you and a little bit of me
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Everybody's talking so sincere
Nobody's telling me what I want to hear
Drug me up and what do I see
A little bit of you and a little bit of me
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
What makes you so weird and freaky
What makes you so clean and squeaky
Jump the wire in and out
All I wanna know is how can I get out
Stop drugs sorted geezers
Packet of fags and laid out Rizlas
Drug me up and what do I see
A little bit of you and a little bit of me
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
What makes you so weird and freaky
What makes you so clean and squeaky
Jump the wire in and out
All I wanna know is how can I get out
Get out
Who's that face in the council estate
Looks like he's been staying up late
Drug me up and what do I see
A little bit of you and a little bit of me
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Everybody's talking so sincere
Nobody's telling me what I want to hear
Drug me up and what do I see
A little bit of you and a little bit of me
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
What makes you so weird and freaky
What makes you so clean and squeaky
Jump the wire in and out
All I wanna know is how can I get out
Get out
Stop drugs sorted geezers
Packet of fags and laid out Rizlas
Drug me up and what do I see
A little bit of you and a little bit of me
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
