Wasn't DOA Cool or Something Once?

Blazing Cat Fur wants to know, "And the Band Blayed On...DOA at Occupest Vancouver."

Actually, DOA was one of the hottest punk bands back in the day. What's not cool, however, is Joey Shithead lending his support to the Occupy Vancouver shitheads. Some woman died of a heroin overdose, which is not something you'd see at tea parties. But MFM reporting on the occupy losers is totally lame, but what else is new? More at Verum Serum: "Death at Occupy Vancouver, Mayor Announces Imminent Closure."

The studio version's still hot after all these years, and when I listen I just transport myself back to my teenage years, when I didn't know anything:

you peer through the darkness, billy clubs aimed.
they smash ya once or twice till ya don't look the same.
ya gotta know who your enemy is.
the enemy.

ya gotta know who your enemy is.
the enemy.

they rope ya to a time clock.
to keep you on the line.
and now your losin' the pieces of your mind.
ya gotta know who your enemy is.
the enemy.

ya gotta know who your enemy is.
the enemy.

the newsmen are lying.
drawing line like black & white.
makin' you believe it's your brother you gotta fight.
ya gotta know who your enemy is.
the enemy.

ya gotta know who your enemy is.
the enemy.
