The DU theme song? Woody Guthrie's "All You Fascists"? YES!!!!!
It's got my vote! Billy Bragg sang it at the Tell Us The Truth concert, that I atended in Tampa last November, he rocked! I also have his version on CD...It's in the mix with RATM for the commute to work now.

I'm gonna tell all you fascists you may be surprised
The people in this world are getting organized
You're bound to lose, you fascists are bound to lose

Race hatred cannot stop us this one thing I know
Your poll tax and Jim Crow and greed have got to go
You're bound to lose, you fascists bound to lose

All of you fascists bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose
All of you fascists bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose
You're bound to lose! You fascists!
Bound to lose

People of every colour marching side by side
Marching 'cross these fields where a million fascists died
You're bound to lose, you fascists bound to lose

I'm going into this battle, and take my union gun
We'll end this world of slavery before this battle's won
You're bound to lose, you fascists bound to lose


WORDS: Woody Guthrie (1942)

Solid!

2. I've got that one.
"Against the Law" is my second favorite on the Bragg/Wilco CD.
