Wars of Armageddon

Redirected from Wars Of Armageddon

Title of song: Wars of Armageddon

Artist: Funkadelic

The music is a bizarre mix of music and special effects-type sounds, and intelligent, though unusual and abstract, lyrics.

Memorable Lyrics:

  • "What do we want?/Freedom!/When do we want it?/Now!"
  • "More power to the people/More pussy to the power/More pussy to the people/More power to the pussy/More pussy to the power/Power to the pussy!"
  • "More power to the peter/More peter to the pussy"
  • "Look at that pollution!/It's a fat funky person"

This song is socially conscious, as the singer demands immediate freedom from oppression, as well as "power to the people" (and many more demands, many nonsensical, see above).
