The Kinks

The Kinks were an English rock band formed in Muswell Hill, North London, by brothers Ray and Dave Davies in 1964. Categorised in the United States as a British Invasion band, the Kinks are recognised as one of the most important and influential rock groups of the era. Their music was influenced by a wide range of genres, including rhythm and blues, British music hall, folk and country. Ray Davies (lead vocals, rhythm guitar) and Dave Davies (lead guitar, vocals) remained members throughout the group's 32-year run.

Down with sex and sin
Down with pot, heroin 
Down with pornography
Down with lust
Down with vice lechery and debauchery
We are the new centurions 
Shepherds of the Nations
We'll keep on our guard 
For sin and degradation
We are the national guard 
Against filth and depravity
Perversion and vulgarity 
Homosexuality 
Keep it clean 
Down with nudity
Breasts that are bare and pubic hair
We are here to cleanse humanity 
From the man in the raincoat's 
Pale faced glare 
So sodomites beware
We are the new centurions
Shepherds of the Nation
We'll keep on our guard 
For sin and degradation 
We are the national, guard 
Against filth and depravity
Perversion and vulgarity 
Homosexuality
Keep it clean
I visualize a day when people will be free 
From evils like perversion and pornography
We'll cast out Satan and we'll set the sinners free 
So people of the nation unite 
Put all the pervs in jail
Bring back the birch, and the cat of nine tails 
Bring back corporal punishment 
Bring back the stocks 
And the axeman's block
Let righteousness prevail 
Down with nudity and hard core magazines 
We'll bring religion back 
And keep our country clean 
Keep it clean
We are the new centurions 
Shepherds of the Nation 
We'll keep on our guard 
For sin and degradation
We are the national guard 
Against filth and depravity
Perversion and vulgarity 
Homosexuality
Keep it clean
