Lyrics
[edit]- It's the suede/denim secret police / They have come for your uncool niece.
- "California Über Alles", 1979
- It's a holiday in Cambodia / It's tough, kid, but it's life.
- "Holiday in Cambodia", 1980
- It's a holiday in Cambodia / where you'll kiss ass or crack.
- "Holiday in Cambodia"
- You still think swastikas look cool? / The real Nazis run your school. / They're coaches, businessmen, and cops / In a real Fourth Reich, you'll be the first to go.
- "Nazi Punks Fuck Off", 1981
