Bob made it pretty clear in this speech that he does not think anyone should be civil then dedicated this song, which seems to oppose civility rather strongly.

Radical musicians being radical enough to conflict with the state and gain national attention is unironically the best method for them to blow up.
Punk can and will make a come back if the state wants to start a fight with musicians over it. What’s even more interesting is that British cultural rebellion through music leans into supporting it too. People on this island do not like music or artist censorship, even when they’re controversial artists, let alone when they’re saying something most of the country agrees with like right now.
This is not a battle the state can win. They are much better off leaving the music industry to be quietly coopted by radio and record companies so that this all sits at the niche fringe, all they’re doing is catapulting fringe artists into mainstream recognition.
Lyrics for y’all.
“Pretty Songs”
One, two, one, two, three, four
I could do this all day long
Sing a song, a pretty little song
Blah-blah, rah-rah-rah
It might be nice
I could do this all day long
Sing a song, a pretty little song
Blah-blah, rah-rah-rah
That’s alright, but I’d rather fight
I could do this all day long
Sing a song, a pretty little song
Blah-blah, rah-rah-rah
That’s alright, but I’d rather fight
And watch you bleed
I’d rather watch you bleed
Sing a song, a pretty little song
That’s alright, but I’d rather fight
I’m violent when I need be
You got a problem, come see me
Black lives have always mattered
You were just never told so on TV
White folks love quoting Martin Luther
'Cause he held hands and prayed while they bombed his building
Good for him but the times have changed
And don’t forget, white folks still killed him
I could do this all day long
Sing a song, a pretty little song
Blah-blah, rah-rah-rah
That’s alright, but I’d rather fight
And watch you bleed
I’d rather watch you bleed
Sing a song, a pretty little song
That’s alright, but I’d rather fight
Who the fuck are you?
I’m not a pacifist, I’m smashing fists
At every single racist prick I meet
I’m not having it, there’s no Kum Ba Yah
To be found 'round here, no groovy beat
No liberal lefty c-u-n-t
Is gonna tell me punching Nazis ain’t the way
If you wanna hold hands and sing
Go do it over there while the big boys play, okay
I could do this all day long
Sing a song, a pretty little song
Blah-blah, rah-rah-rah
That’s alright, but I’d rather fight
And watch you bleed
I’d rather watch you bleed
Sing a song, a pretty little song
That’s alright, but I’d rather fight
I could do this all day long
Sing a song, a pretty little song
Blah-blah, rah-rah-rah
It might be nice
I could do this all day long
Sing a song, a pretty little song
Blah-blah, rah-rah-rah
That’s alright, but I’d rather kill you
