about

The band's grand finale song, usually accompanied by smashing a tv set, while urging kids everywhere to try this at home and then go out and smash the state.

lyrics

Guerrilla Love (Smash the State

From about the age of eight
I read Proudhon and smashed the state
Property is theft and profit is loss
And don’t ever drop your tweeds for a boss

You look smashing with your head half shorn
You look cool with your jeans all torn
You look great dressed in black
Even if you wore a rubbish sack

The first of May is our special date
You look smashing when you smash the state

You stand out from the human race
You’re more than just a pretty face
Those studs in your eyebrow, ears and nose
Are like the thorns on a rose

Would it upset you if I say
I really love your DNA
We could be like fist in glove
United in guerrilla love

I’m going to spend my tax rebate
Gonna buy an axe and smash the state

You got a mind that throws off sparks
You got more savvy than Karl Marx
You’re old enough not to vote
And you’d never marry a rich old goat

I can’t explain – it’s something innate
That makes me want to smash the state

You know it’s time to wipe the slate
Let’s clean up and smash the state
Things are bad but it’s not too late
Let’s get smashing and smash the state
Even if it’s covered in armour plate
Let’s get smashing and smash the state
Let’s settle down and smash the state
Let’s have kids who smash the state

Why don’t we smash the state
Why don’t we smash the state why don’t we …….
