Peter Gabriel "D.I.Y." means "Do it Yourself", as in "If you want to have some control/ you've got to keep it _small_/ D.I.Y. (Do It Yourself)" Vapors Civic Hall Magnets My favorite track by the folks who brought you "Turning Japanese". A beautiful song about someone peddling jam on the street by the civic hall being hassled by the police "And my home made jam/And my trust in man/lies broken by the Civic Hall/_Civic_ _Hall_..." KMFDM Money Money/Bargeld (CD single) An industrial track to keep my industrial fans happy, with the inspiring chorus "one for the money/two for the show/it's three to get ready/now _go_ kids GO!" (which unfortunately I'm sure they intended sarcastically). The lines about people so sleazy they'll do anything for money like dealing drugs worked fairly well as a lead-in to: Peter Tosh Legalize It Legalize It Overplayed and a bit obvious, but it fits too well to skip it. Reggae about legalizing marijuana. Malcom X "by any means Wisdom of Malcom X necessary" The end of the famous speech about the importance of self-defense. Movement Ex Freedom Got a 12" single Shotgun Hard hitting rap/hip-hop about the right to bear arms. You can't be free without a shotgun. Broken English Klik Who's the Gangsta Broken English Klik Heavily political hip-hop, talking about the various kinds of crap the police get away with, each example followed by the refrain "So who's the gangsta?" Cops considered as just another gang. Nuclear Renaisance One Down Day After Begins with a reading of the first ammemdment, and the lyrics "One down... what next? The whole bill of rights?". Competent female vocal folk singing, but the backing music is such over-produced schmalzy crap I couldn't bring myself to play the entire song. Yeastie Girlz FCC Yeastie Girlz 7" Rap about the FCC's role as a censorship agency. "We wish the FCC would go away!" Bongwater Obscene & The Power of Pussy Pornographic Art Sarcastic song about how hot and sexy all that "pornography" is on display in every traditional art museum. Beatles Tax Man Rock n' Roll Music Another old and obvious pick, but how could I skip it? Name another rock and roll song about the evils of high taxes... Clock DVA Black Angel's Death Breakdown 12" single Song Vaugely incoherent old Velvet Underground song, with a constant motif of "choice": "free to choose/choose to go..." Possibly supposed to be about suicide, but in the context I'm placing it here, you're supposed to be thinking about leaving an oppressive situation, e.g. a location with high taxes... (Why a cover rather than the original? Well I *really* like Clock DVA, and this is a chance to slip in another "industrial" song to keep the i-heads satisified.){ Frazier Chorus Anarchy in the U.K. Twitch Volume 1 Very soft, mellow version of the old Sex Pistols song. If you pay close attention, the lyrics are making more of a chaos=anarchy connection, but the lines "...I thought it was the U.K./Or just another country..." shows the right level of contempt for nations and nationalism. Killbilly Don't Tread on Me 7" single Nice light weight rockabilly/country. "In the land of the brave and the free/ Don't tread on me." Self-explanatory. Young Disciples Freedom Road to Freedom Slow, jazzy vocals all about the need for freedom.
