Bormann
[edit]Bormann, prankishly pictured as the band's uniformed bass player on the 12" pressing, is also mentioned in Biggs' recording of the earlier Pistols song "Belsen Was A Gas", another song which makes light of the Holocaust ("No One is Innocent", while calling Brady "horrible", dismisses the Nazis as "only having fun"). Fleeing prosecution for war crimes following World War II, Bormann was for years thought to have escaped, like Biggs, to Brazil.
"Belsen was a Gas" doesn't exactly "make light" of the Holocaust. It is a song about the Holocaust, but there is nothing in the lyris that make light of it. Its very "matter of fact" actually. And the line from "No One is Innocent" is "...that was their idea of fun", which is not quite the same as saying "they were only having fun". I wish people would research these things..... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.72.104.66 (talk) 13:25, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

William Grundy
[edit]The reference to William Grundy (God save William Grundy from falling in manure) is quite possibly a reference to the newly born (in 1983) Archers baby of that name. Hence manure? Or it may conflate him with Bill Grundy the journalist? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Richdrich (talk • contribs) 04:35, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
- How could it relate to something in 1983? "No one is Innocent" was released 5 years before that, in 1978! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.198.33.252 (talk) 15:18, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
