"London Calling," Terrorist Threat?

Thank god he wasn't playing ANYTHING by the Misfits:

British anti-terrorism detectives escorted a man from a plane after a taxi driver had earlier become suspicious when he started singing along to a track by punk band The Clash, police said on Wednesday.
Police are still looking for his accomplice, Jimmy Jazz.

It's obviously "Rock the Casbah":

"By order of the prophet
We ban that boogie sound
Degenerate the faithful
With that crazy Casbah sound"
