"Kiss Ya Lips (No I.D.)" is a song by Ian Brown, from his well-received fourth solo album, Solarized. The song takes a stance against a controversial British policy requiring compulsory ID card registration and in general, the heightened security measures in the post 9/11 world.

The line, "So Mr. Politician" refers to Labour MP David Blunkett who proposed the scheme. He believed this policy would act as a defence in the "war on terror". This unpopular policy and other growing scandals led to his resignation from the post of Home Secretary on December 15, 2004.

The line "Cause loose lips sinks ships" refers to propaganda posters from the Second World War that warned the public of foreign spies, drawing similarities with the ID program taking away personal privacy.
