Big Black "Deep Six," a couple of 'em, and a gun of course.. a buck knife, a saw blade, a lead pipe, a 12-gauge. Er, pretty much every Big Black song now that I think about it. Does kerosene count?

Big Black are genius, did I mention. "Fish Fry" - a boot. "Kitty Empire" - a house full of cats. ("I am your neighbor now,
You can't stop me now").. "Cables" - duh.. but there's a hammer in there too. Seth the racist dog.
