Joe Strummer生于政治世家，很多歌曲以政治为题材，有浓烈的左派思想， Ni"~1Fh6y
上世纪70年代末期到80年代可谓是叱咤英伦乐坛，掀起朋克浪潮，1982年成功打入美国市场，乐队于1989年解散。 hJdCU,gKn
2002年12月22号下午身亡的主唱／吉他手Joe Strummer的死因为心脏停止跳动而辞世。这位50岁的庞克偶像在屋内跌倒，他的老婆Lucinda发现后试着急救，但没有成功挽回生命。许多音乐人带着沉重的心情哀悼Strummer的过世，U2主唱Bono在官方网站上留言：「The Clash是最伟大的摇滚乐团，他们为U2写下最佳守则...我们本要在一月碰面，跟Dave Stewart一起完成我们为曼德拉所创作的歌，这真是太震惊了！」；同感震惊的艺人还包括了Audioslave（音魔乐团）吉他手Tom Morello及音乐玩童Moby（魔比）等艺人。

I was patrolling a Pachinko
Nude noodle model parlor in the Nefarious zone
Hanging out with insects under ducting
The C.I.A was on the phone
Well, such is life
Latino caribo, mondo bongo
The flower looks good in your hair
Latino caribo, mondo bongo
Nobody said it was fair, oh
Latino caribo, mondo bongo
The flower looks good in your hair
Latino caribo, mondo bongo
Nobody said it was fair
Latino caribo, mondo bongo
The flower looks good in your hair
Latino caribo, mondo bongo
Nobody said it was fair
For the Zapatistas I'll rob my sisters
Of all the curtain and lace
Down at the bauxite mine
You get your own uniform
Have lunchtimes off
Take a monorail to your home
Checkmate, baby
God bless us and our home
Where ever we roam
Now take us home, flaquito
Latino caribo, mondo bongo
The flower looks good in your hair
Latino caribo, mondo bongo
Nobody said it was fair
Latino caribo, mondo bongo
The flower looks good in your hair
Latino caribo, mondo bongo
Nobody said it was fair
