Fish Cheer from Wiki...

The "Fish" Cheer / I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin'-To-Die Rag is a popular protest song from the band Country Joe and the Fish from their 1967 album of the same name. The song begins with the "fish" cheer which was a cheerleader-style call-and-response with the audience where Country Joe spells out "fish" ("Give me an F!"). The song itself is a black comedy novelty song about the Vietnam War, whose familiar chorus ("One, two, three, what are we fighting for?") is well known to the Woodstock generation and Vietnam Vets of the 1960s and 1970s. It is the band's most successful and popular song peaking in the top 40 spot on the charts.

In one of the most memorable performances at the legendary Woodstock Festival, Country Joe performs the song solo. He altered the fish cheer to say "f**k" instead and all half a million attendees sang along. At one point, most of the audience members stood up to sing along with him. The performance garnered international attention and has since been seen as the epitome of the anti-war movement of the 1960s.

I sent Joe an MP3 of my "F**k Your War" tune. I don't think he cared for it much. I mentioned that it went over well in bars and he said, "...people luv to hear F**K just about anything especially in bars after they have had a few drinks". That and stoner/rock festivals, I reckon.
