Phil Ochs - a left social democrat, committed suicide in 1976

Well it’s 1-2-3...

What are 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 there ain’t no time to wonder why.

Whoopee!!! We’re all gonna die.

A classic that one of the local radio stations would play every Thanksgiving.

Alex Chilton and The Box Tops, right? I always loved that song. Not really political, but very cool.  

Yeah the Box Tops were first. Joe Cocker did a cover. And no not political but a gem.

Oops! I think you’re right. Ochs was “I ain’t a marching anymore”. 

Carry on. 

“GIMME AN F!!!!”
