I think war is something horrible and absolutely useless.
I think that a world without war would be something beautiful.

That is why post some songs denouncing how wars are bad.

Thank you all

Country Joe and The Fish. Vietnam Song live @ Woodstock '69

yeah, c'mon on all you big strong men
Uncle Sam needs your help again
he's got himself in a terrible jam
way down yonder in Vietnam
so put down your books and pick up a gun
we're gonna have a whole lot of fun

and it's 1, 2, 3, what're we fighting for?
don't ask me, I don't give a damn
next stop is vietnam
and it's 5, 6, 7, open up the pearly gates
well, ain't no time to wonder why
whoopee! we're all gonna die

now c'mon on Wall Street
don't be slow
Why man, this is a war! Au-go-go
there's plenty good money to be made
by supplin' the Army with the tools of the trade
just hope and pray that if we drop the bomb
they drop it on-a Viet-Cong



Chorus

now c'mon generals, let's move fast
your big chance is here at last
gotta go out and get those Reds
the only good Commie is one that's dead
and you know that peace can only be won when we blown 'em all to kingdom come

chorus

Now c'mon mothers throughout the land
pack your boys off to Vietnam
c'mon fathers, don't hesitate
send 'em off before it's too late
be the first one on your block to have your boy come home in a box

and it's 1, 2, 3, what're we fighting for?
don't ask me, I don't give a damn
next stop is vietnam
and it's 5, 6, 7, open up the pearly gates
well, ain't no time to wonder why
whoopee! we're all gonna die

Come on, people, come on, children
Come on down to the glory river.
Gonna wash you up, and wash you down,
Gonna lay the devil down, gonna lay that devil down.

Come on, people! Come on, children!
There's a king at the glory river

And the precious king, he loved the people to sing;
Babes in the blinkin' sun sang
"We Shall Overcome".

I got fury in my soul,fury's gonna take me to the glory goal
In my mind I can't study war no more.
Save the people, save the children, save the country now

Come on, people come on, children
Come on down to the glory river
Gonna wash you up and wash you down
Gonna lay the devil down, gonna lay that devil down

Come on people! Sons and mothers
Keep the dream of the two young brothers
Gonna take that dream and ride that dove

We could build the dream with love, I know,
We could build the dream with love, I know,
We could build a dream with love, children,
We could build the dream with love, oh people,
We could build the dream with love, I know,
We could build the dream with love.

Dead cats, dead rats.
Did you see what they were at, all right.

Dead cat in a top hat, wooh!
Sucking on the young man's blood.
Wishing he could come, yeah.
Sucking on the soldier's brain.
Wishing it would be the same.

Dead cat, dead rat.
Did you see what they were at.
Fat cat in a top hat.
Thinks he's an aristocrat.
Thinks he can kill and slaughter.
Thinks he can shoot my daughter.

Yeah, right.
Oh yeah.
Oh right.
Yeah...

Dead cats, dead rats.
Think you're an aristocrat.
Crap, that's crap.
