Tigersaw is right - first UK punk song was New Rose, The Damned, 1976

EEEEEee the good old days. Off to the Victoria Hall in Hanley every week to see the new bands. Siouxsie & the Banshees, the Clash, Stranglers, Buzzcocks................... Those were the days I had hair then, so I could dye it & cut it in a mowhawk.

Well, to be fair there's a clue in the first line

Though I do believe you have the first line wrong... Which funnily enough, means that if you google it, you get nothing but SV650.org.

Curtain call and lights go dim
Tragedy, love all lie within
Each player takes his chance to play
And lives to fight another day
Another day

+1, and still going strong. Can't think of a better way to spend a saturday night than ankle deep in mud in the depth of Thetford forrest - BRAINSCAN soundsystem. Nice.

Sadly, i only know "new rose" because Guns and roses covered (or crusified it depending on your perspective).
