“Mr. Backlash, Mr. Backlash
Just who do think I am
You raise my taxes, freeze my wages
And send my son to vietnam”

Musical Worldview: The Fugs, "Kill For Peace"

R-5375063-1400436394-4228.jpeg.jpg

“Kill, kill, kill for peace
Kill, kill, kill for peace
Near or middle or very far east
Far or near or very middle east
Kill, kill, kill for peace
Kill, kill, kill for peace
If you don't like the people
Or the way that they talk
If you don't like their manners
Or they way that they walk,
Kill, kill, kill for peace
Kill, kill, kill for peace
If you don't kill them
Then the Chinese will
If you don't want America
To play second fiddle,
Kill, kill, kill for peace
Kill, kill, kill for peace
If you let them live
They might support the Russians
If you let them live
They might love the Russians”
