...that's one of the lines I can recall.
The other two lines I can remember ...
I don't know where to begin, living in sin
Take an independent point of view
male vocalist, early eighties I think...

That's "Get The Message" by Electronic.
The Damned fucking rock by the way.

"Get the Message" and "Getting Away With It" were both Top 40 hits in the US. "Getting Away With It" was the bigger hit I think.

Their first two albums are worth buying if you liked Get The Message and want to get more into them. Every song is a keeper. And their last one, Twisted Tenderness is an engineering/production marvel with killer songs to boot. Bernard Sumner on the vocals

Marv summed it up well, as usual, but don't overlook Hex's post about "Disappointed". It's a killer track.
BTW - Every time I see your nickname, I get a serious itch for some Damned!!! It's contagious like yawning I think!
