War by Edwin Starr

((come on, total Alderaani song.))

War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
War is something that I despise
For it means destruction of innocent lives
For it means tears in thousands of mothers' eyes
When their sons go out to fight to give their lives

War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing

War
It's nothing but a heartbreaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker
War is the enemy of all mankind
The thought of war blows my mind
Handed down from generation to generation
Induction destruction
Who wants to die

War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing

War has shattered many young men's dreams
Made them disabled bitter and meanLife is too precious to be fighting wars
each day
War can't give life it can only take it away

War
It's nothing but a heartbreaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker
Peace love and understanding
There must be some place for these things today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord there's gotta be a better way
That's better than
War

War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing

Out of boredom last night, I created new lyrics to the Christmas song Sleigh Ride about Rogue Squadron. Would posting them on this topic be appropriate?

Here it shall be then:

"Space Flight"
Rogue Squadron's daily experience, in Christmas carol form
(Sung to the tune of "Sleigh Ride")

Oh, there are blasters shooting
And missiles going off too
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a space flight together with you

Outside the shrapnel's falling
And TIEs are going "Ka-boom"
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a space flight together with you

Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up
Let's go
Let's look at the show
But be careful not to fly your ship too slow

Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up it's grand
But steady your hand
Be careful not to use all your shots
For we don't know when we're going to land

Do be careful
Though the Rebellions finest we be
Keep the squadron together like
Birds of a feather would be

Take the Destroyer before us
And take a generator or two
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a space flight together with you

I(f we're lucky we'll get medals from Crix Madine
And drink some beer imported straight from Tatooine
We'll be singing the songs we love to sing in our break room
While we remember how we caused the Ties to go "boom"
Boom! Boom! Boom!

There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can make
When you find you don't have to be in a bacta tank
There'll be things we can tell to our children and our wives
These wonderful things are the things that we remember all through our lives



And there you have it.  

[Sol Walker]

Well I fell into prison about a quarter to three,
Where I found in my cell a glass waiting for me
So I filled what was empty and I pulled up a stool
But he stood in the corner, the old devil wouldn't move
He said, "You drink when you're lonely." No I drink when I want!
He said, "You'll never be sober." Sure. Why would I want that?
I only drink to be merry but unfortunately
I'm in the wrong prison cell and the wrong company........

[Sol Walker]

Lookin' down through a tide of no return
Is a field where the crops no longer grow
Parched is the land, strangled an' be damned
There for the Grace Of God Go I

Down beside where the riverbed sleeps
Is a man not knowin' what he should feel
Mocked by the wave that beats the waters edge
There for the Grace Of God Go I

If I ever hurt another like thee again
I would drown myself beneath your name
Lost was the child, we all once did hide
There for the Grace Of God Go I

-Flogging Molly
