You don't know how long I've been waiting to tell you that I have the perfect song for you in mind.
HORSE IN STRIPED PAJAMAS
look there daddy, do you see?
there's a horse in striped pajamas
no, thats not what it is at all
that's an animal people call a zebra
i see, but it still looks like a
horse in striped pajamas to me
look there papa, do you see?
there's a bird in his tuxedo
no, that's not what it is at all
that's an animal people call a penguin
i see, but it still looks like a
bird in his tuxedo to me
i see a fish with whiskers on
no that's a seal, for real
i see a teddy with two black eyes
that's what they call the little panda
hey hey daddy, do you see?
there's a bird with his umbrella
no, that's not what it is at all
that's an animal people call a peacock
i see, but it still looks like a
bird with his umbrella to me.

Hmm, you should've been exposed to it by now then really as a self respecting college student. Maybe Paul Weller rings any bells?
There's a little snippet of probably their most famous song here: http://www.gearchange.org/descripti...nderground.html

In fact you might like the lyrics, think they're more anti Thatcher, but you can switch em to most rightwing governments
quote:
The Jam - Going Underground 1980
Some people might say my life is in a rut,
But I'm quite happy with what I got
People might say that I should strive for more,
But I'm so happy I can't see the point.
Somethings happening here today
A show of strength with your boy's brigade and,
I'm so happy and you're so kind
You want more money - of course I don't mind
To buy nuclear textbooks for atomic crimes
And the public gets what the public wants
But I want nothing this society's got -
I'm going underground, (going underground)
Well the brass bands play and feet start to pound
Going underground, (going underground)
Well let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow
Some people might get some pleasure out of hate
Me, I've enough already on my plate
People might need some tension to relax
Me, I'm too busy dodging between the flak
What you see is what you get
You've made your bed, you better lie in it
You choose your leaders and place your trust
As their lies wash you down and their promises rust
You'll see kidney machines replaced by rockets and guns
And the public wants what the public gets
But I don't get what this society wants
I'm going underground, (going underground)
Well the brass bands play and feet start to pound
Going underground, (going underground)
Well let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow
We talk and talk until my head explodes
I turn on the news and my body froze
The braying sheep on my TV screen
Make this boy shout, make this boy scream!
Going underground...
