Who cares if they're barbed enough? It's Hot Tuna!
Recent years have sort of made this a 'patriotic song' in the same vein, too...

LOL Bicentennial, Pete.
Let's not age the gentlemen any faster than they are aging themselves...
That made me chuckle...

I remember when I first started to see media propaganda for what it is. The "Today Show" did a segment during the first Gulf War about how all the song in this war were "supporting the war effort." Supposedly Sean Lennon doing a remake of his dad's famous anti war effort "Give peace a chance" was real pro war this time around.
And supposedly Bett Midler's song "From a distance" was all about supporting the troops. But this lyric was ignored by the media sycophants.
From a distance you look like my friend
even though we are at war.
From a distance I just can't comprehend
what all this fighting is for.
The only song these media morons were willing to admit was anti war was the Rolling Stones "High Wire"
We sell 'em missiles, We sell 'em tanks
We give 'em credit, You can call up the bank
It's just a business, You can pay us in crude
You'll love these toys, just go play out your feuds
We got no pride, don't know whose boots to lick
We act so greedy, makes me sick sick sick
So get up, stand up, out of my way
I wanna talk to the boss right away
Get up, stand up, who's gonna pay
I wanna talk to the man right away
We walk the highwire
Sending men to the front line
And hoping they don't catch the hell-fire
Of hot guns and cold, cold lies
We walk the highwire
Send the men to the front lines
And tell 'em to hotbed the sunshine
With hot guns and cold, cold lies
Our lives are threatened, our jobs at risk
Sometimes dictators need a slap on the wrist
Another Munich we just can't afford
We're gonna send in the 82nd Airborne
Of course the good stuff this time around leaves nothing to imagination. Michael Franti "Time to go home."
Thirty seconds to Mars : This is war.
