Nah,my line of thought(heh)was: Explosive('bring *your* explosives to work

That was pretty much what I thought you meant, hence my suggestion of 
this classic UK post-punk/New Wave song...

Once you've looked up the lyrics and want some background/context, if 
nothing else, read the first para of this page:

   http://www.80smusiclyrics.com/artists/boomtownrats.htm

(In fact, that page gives you the background for the song and then has 
the lyrics, so perhaps just hit that page if you want to know what I 
was talking about...)

Thanks for the link,now I get it.
Punk/new wave was before my time(I was 5 years old when this song was released),
but I like it.Yet another period of music history to add to my TODO list.
And I sure understand how Brenda Spencer felt <g>.
What about kids from Columbine high school?I've watched "Bowling for Columbine",but I 
still don't understand  that mindset,although this country had its share of random(and no so random)violence in the 
90's,
reaching its peak in 2002,with assassination of PM,but that's just too depressing for funsec to discuss.
