"Storm the Embassy" is about the Iran hostage crisis of 1979-80 and may be the only time the Stray Cats recorded a political song.

Famous quotes containing the words stray and/or cats:
“An empty house is like a stray dog or a body from which life has departed.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
“The surprise of animals... in and out, cats and dogs and a milk goat and chickens and guinea hens, all taken for granted, as if man was intended to live on terms of friendly intercourse with the rest of creation instead of huddling in isolation on the fourteenth floor of an apartment house in a city where animals occurred behind bars in the zoo.”
—Elizabeth Janeway (b. 1913)
