THIS COMPETITION HAS FINISHED BUT YOU CAN STILL DO IT FOR FUN AND CHECK THE ANSWERS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST>
Editing any of our punkgirldiaries posts usually involves taking out or putting in the apostrophe for the word its … or it’s.

This is a lyric competition; all you have to do is name the song and artist. They’re punk or post-punk songs released 1976-82 and they all start with it’s……
1. “It’s time for you to laugh, so keep on trying”
2. “It’s tough kid, but it’s life”
3. “It’s the one across the hall”
4. “It’s a thing that’s worth having”
5. “It’s not as much fun as I hoped that it would be”
6. “It’s her built in protection”
7. It’s so grey in London town”
8. “It’s coming sometime and maybe”
9. “It’s not plain to see that I’m playing with me”
10. “It’s one way to revive but no way to relax”

Even if you don’t get all the answers, it’s worth entering. Closing date is 9am on Monday 15th June 2020. The winner, with the highest number of correct answers, or drawn randomly if there is a tie, will receive a punkgirldiaries blogzine or T-shirt. Email the answers to punkgirldiaries.com, or include them in a message to @punkgirldiaries on Twitter or via the contact page on this site.

Always nice to see a Buzzcock b-side ..or was it a double ‘A’…. or even a Clash song that was ‘disowned’ after CBS released it as a single (instead of their choice ‘Janie Jones’)…I think everybody would know the 2nd ever UK punk rock 7″ & a recommendation for ‘a trip of a lifetime’ from a presidential US group
