Seemed an appropriate moment to bring the Clash into the conversation:

I swear by almighty god To tell the whole truth And nothing but the truth

Guns guns They torture all the women and children Then theyve put the men to the gun cos across the human frontier Freedoms always on the run

Guns guns a-shaking in terror Guns guns killing in error Guns guns guilty hands Guns guns shatter the lands

A system built by the sweat of the many Creates assassins to kill off the few Take any place and call it a court house This is a place where no judge can stand

Sue the lawyers and burn all the papers Unlock the key of the legal papers A jury of a billion faces Shouted out condemned out of hand

Guns guns, and nobodys kidding Guns guns, or foolin around Guns guns, the violence is singing Guns guns, a silence the sound

n I iike to be in aferica A-beatin on the final drum n I like to be in u.s.s.r. Makin sure these things will come n I like to be in u.s.a. Pretending that the wars are done n I like to be in europa Saying goodbye to everyone

Guns guns theres guns on the roof Guns guns theyre made to shoot
