Band Name Origins:
- It was when Malcom McLaren wanted a band to promote his clothes from his and Vivienne Westwood's shop "sex". He wanted Sex cos it was the name of his shop and he also wanted it to be like 'Sexy Young Assassins' so he thought of Pistols as the assassin bit. So you get The Sex Pistols. This is true as it's on the Filth and the Fury (Pistol's DVD). Submitted by: PunkRocker666
- It comes from part of a plant. The 'sex organs' of a plant are called it's 'sex pistals'. Malcolm McLaren simply changed the spelling to 'Pistols' to make it more aggressive. Submitted by: Klif Fuller

The Lyrics: I am an Anti-Christ
I am an anarchist Don't know what I want but I know how to get it I wanna destroy passerby Cause I wanna be anarchy Why: The opening words say it all.

When I was in college during some weekend retreats some of my friends in the cabin dining room would dare each other to start singing this punk classic just to have fun with a shock affect. Campy fun.

Two weeks after signing the Sex Pistols, Virgin Records releases this song to coincide with Queen Elizabeth II's Silver Jubilee celebration in June 1977. The song is banned from British airplay because of its "treasonous sentiments." Nonetheless, the song becomes a Number One record in the U. K., listed in some reports with a blank line where the title should be.
