Who Killed Bambi? by The Sex Pistols
Gentle pretty thing,
who only had one spring,
you bravely faced the world,
ready for anything,
I'm happy that you lived,
cus now your life is mine,
what have I
expect to cry,
spirit never die
birds of the air,
beasts of the air
overjoyed at Bambis birth
they gambolled in the glade
who killed Bambi
who killed Bambi
murder murder murder
someone should be angry
the crime of the century
who shot little Bambi
never trust a hippie,
I love punkie Bambi
I'll kill to find the killer
in the rotten roll army
all you spiky punkies
believers in the ruin
with one big shout they all cry out
who killed Bambi!
who killed Bambi! ...
