Kill For Peace Lyrics

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 the 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 may subvert the Prussians
if you let them live they might love the Russians

kill, kill, kill!
kill 'em! kill 'em! strafe them gook creeps!

the only gook an American can trust
is a gook that's got his yellow head bust

kill, kill, kill for peace
kill, kill, kill for peace
kill, kill, it will feel so good
like my captain said it should

kill, kill, kill for peace
kill, kill, kill for peace
kill, it will give you a mental ease
kill, it will give you a big release

kill, kill, kill for peace
kill, kill, kill for peace
kill, kill, kill for peace

kill! kill! kill! kill! kill!

Cover art for Kill For Peace lyrics by Fugs, The

A sinister-toned, bitterly sarcastic and rancorous anti war song by possibly the only rock band who, as early as 1965, sang songs with fuck and dick and douche words, as well as many songs that graphically depicted jaibailt sex, drug use, sex in general, and violence so as to encourage all except the last. Their music is a mixture of garage rock, folk rock, psychedelia, experimental music

and satire.

This song was featured in the movie, "WR: Mysteries of the Organism", a film based on the life and trials of Wilhelm Reich. Reich pursued the idea of sexual repression as the root cause of violence. In the film, Tuli Kupferberg of the Fugs appears in an army helmet masturbating an assault rifle and telegraphing the meaning of the song, which is that killing and militarism in general are what happens when orgiastic potency is frustrated.
