This is a 2-star song.
Lyrically the target is too easy and Ed still misses with that lame refrain ("MIND YOUR MANNERS!"). I feel embarrassed for everyone when he lets the crowd shout it live.
Musically it's nothing special. "Punk" by numbers. Mike's solo deserves a better song.

MYM's lyrics are excellent, and a fair bit more sophisticated than most people give it credit for, especially compared to some of the more superficially deep songs in the catalog.
The main riff (outside of the opening/closing part) is a bit punk by numbers, but strong lyrics, great performance by Eddie, that wonderful layered chorus, and one of Mike's better solos.

Although I enjoyed initially, it has lost its value for me over time. All I hear now is something that starts like an Ace of Spades ripoff but then it stops knowing what it wants to be.
