I live a life of danger for the FBI



Originally recorded by Johnny Rivers in 1966 as the US theme for a British TV series featuring Patrick McGoohan, Devo's version from 1974 was filmed for this clip in May 1976. It formed part of the Devo film The Truth About De-Evolution, which was in effect the band's first music video. The Rivers version is fun too, albeit rather more straightforward.
