30. Outdoor Miner: Wire

A song about a little insect with abtuse lyrics until the chorus:

He lies on his side, is he trying to hide?
In fact it's the earth which he's known since birth.

Friendly vocals with harmonies, simple, insanely catchy and hook-driven music, coming in at less than 2 minutes. If you didn't know beforehand that this was a punk band, you wouldn't believe it.

I now know where Robert Pollard derived his GBV inspiration.
