bad, young, what’s the difference?

i love the black lips. and this song comes up on my playlist at work fairly frequently, which makes me happy.

weirdly though, every time i hear it i think it sounds a lot like the theme for the young ones:

which it clearly doesn’t. why is my brain making these associations? maybe it’s just that the lyrics to “bad kids”give me a nice mental image of the young ones running wild (especially vyvyan, who reminds me an awful lot of my college friend pagoda). i mean, this song would make a great theme song for this show, had it been recorded 30 years earlier.
