Edwin Starr and Bruce Springsteen sung it before: WAR, what is it good for, absolutly nothing. This is our opinion about war!

Story behind the song
Always wanted to write a song about the futility of war. This is the result. We also shot a videoclip for this one.
Lyrics
Back in the ages when mammoths walked the earth, Tribes defend their hunting grounds, fought with spear and blunt. They had a damn good reason, they had mouths to feed. Other tribes formed a threat, so they made them bleed. You can’t take the war out of man The mighty Roman empire and their everlasting quest. They conquered every enemy and wiped out all the rest. Napoleon was no different, he planned to rule them all, That little French warlord took nations by the balls. You can’t take the war out of man No you can’t take the war out of man There’s war about religion, there’s war about land. For those who play war games, once their turn will end. Uncle Sam sends Joe and Jane to a country far away. Not with their swimming suits but big guns to keep the peace they say. He knows it’s good for business to feed the war machine. Feed it with our babies and keep your own hands clean You can’t take the war out of man Mother Russia strong and proud, rules the motherland. Perestroika and Glasnost was what she would demand. She has her own reasons to fight and make a stand, She points her missiles to the west, the home of Uncle Sam. You can’t take the war out of man No you can’t take the war out of man There’s war about religion, there’s war about land. For those who play war games, once their turn will end. Play the game dirty, play the game fair Players of war games all loose at the end
