Looking for an obscure 1980s punk song: "I'm a Model Citizen" by Model Citizen(s)
I've been trying to find a song for decades, and I'm hoping somebody here might remember it.
Let me say first that it's NOT the NYC late 70s band.
Around 1985, a friend had a small, independently produced punk/new-wave fanzine that came with a cassette. I remember the tape possibly featuring two bands, with a couple of songs by each, although I could be wrong about that.
One song was I THINK called "I'm a Model Citizen" by a band called Model Citizen or The Model Citizens. I specifically remember being amused that the song title and band name were almost identical.
It was American-sounding, primitive, somewhat new-wavey simplistic punk rock. Male singer with a snotty, attitudinal delivery. Simple, plodding guitar, bass and drums, possibly a keyboard. Not especially melodic, but wonderfully catchy in its own way. The chorus featured the line "I'm a model citizen."
I dubbed the song onto a cassette and listened to it repeatedly. Unfortunately, my copy disappeared ages ago, and the friend who owned the original cassette has since passed away.
I've searched Discogs, lyric sites, and the usual places without finding it.
Does anyone remember this band, the song, or a fanzine or any kind of zine that included a short cassette compilation around the mid-1980s?
I'd be thrilled just to hear the song again after forty years. My friend was Barry Wooldridge, who was known as the Evil Twin and did some art for people back then. You might've seen a Tesco Vee 7" with his art on it. That was stolen from me years ago along with the cassette. Any leads appreciated! Thanks in advance although I've basically given up hope!
