X-Ray Spex were a UK punk band formed in 1976. The band featured singer Poly Styrene(born Marion Elliot) on vocals, Jak Airport (Jack Stafford) on guitars, Paul Dean on bass, Paul 'B. P.' Hurding on Drums, and Lora Logic(born Susan Whitby) on saxophone. This latter instrument was an atypical addition to the standard punk instrumental line-up, and became one of the group's most distinctive features. X-Ray Spex's other distinctive musical element was Poly Styrene's voice, which has been variously described as "effervescently discordant" and "powerful enough to drill holes through sheet metal".

Let's Submerge Lyrics
X-Ray Spex
It's dark and eerie
And it's really late
Come on kids don't hesitate
We're going down to the underground
We're going down we're going down
To the underground
The hades ladies are dressed to kill
Dagger glares from richard hell
Tension heightening heating frightening
Thunder rolls as fast as lightening
If you've got the urge
Come on let's submerge
The subterrene is a bottomless pit
The vinyl vultures are after it
Moulten lava sulphur vapours
Smoulder on to obligerate us
If you've got the urge
Come on let's submerge
