Thread Name: Phil Ochs and George W. Bush
Subject: RE: Phil Ochs and George W. Bush
Many of Phil's songs would fit as well today as when he wrote them:
Cops of the World
I Ain't Marching Anymore
The War is Over
Here's to the State of Richard Nixon (Subs. GWya)
Are a few suggestions.
I have a recording of SNCC Freedom Singers Matthew and Marshall Brown singing:
'Nato's Bombing in a Balkan Land', their adaptation of 'White Boots Marching in a Yellow Land'
I'm sure another adaptation could be written for the latest debacle.
Phil Ochs lives on!
