“I’ve memorized Lerner and Golden / I feel like I’m almost a #Jew!” sang the late #protest #singer #PhilOchs. This might fall suspect on your ears, as he calls out noted #Jewish journalists of his era from a goyish philosemitic point of view.
What is not often discussed? #Ochs himself was Jewish, and this line was a bit of #political #satire. Perhaps you’ve never heard of him until now, but allow me to introduce you to this Jewish #protestsinger that more people should know about, especially in our current political climate.
His middle-class Jewish family moved around during his youth from #Texas to #NewYork and finally #Ohio. The young Ochs would turn out to be a clarinet prodigy who joined a university orchestra at age 15. Certainly talented enough to make your #bubbe’s upwardly-mobile #shtetl #neshume #kvell. But then his life would unwind, some say into madness, others would say into genius."

Cover of #PhilOchs 1960s #KnockOnTheDoor - updated #ICEout song
Now there's many new words and many new names
Uniforms have changed but the knock is the same
The agents of ICE broadcast their raids
They’re trying to make the people afraidOpen your eyes. See what they do
When they knock for your neighbor they're knocking for you.With their knock on the door, knock on the door
Here they come to take one more#BenGrosscup live Jan 2026

January 23, 1970 - Called as witnesses, folksingers Judy Collins, Country Joe McDonald, Arlo Guthrie, Phil Ochs, and Pete Seeger were denied permission to sing as part of their testimony for the defense at the trial of "The Chicago Seven."

Folk group #MitchellTrio, after Chad was replaced by #JohnDenver - sang the #PhilOchs #satire "Draft Dodger Rag" in 1968. This is one of the rare occasions where the Denver-led trio sang a song released by the original #ChadMitchellTrio.
The Chad Mitchell Trio released the song in 1964, one year before Phil Ochs put it on his own album. When the trio recorded the song, in addition to the original song that Ochs wrote, they also included a hilarious narrative intro to the song, as can be heard on their album, The Slightly Irreverent Mitchell Trio:
We've licked pneumonia and TB and the plagues that used to mock us.
We've got the onus on the sun; the smallpox cannot pock us.
We've found the antibodies for the staphylostreptococcus.
But ahh, the universal curse, from Vietnam to Korea,
The bug of bugs that bugs us still and begs for panacea.
Oh, who will find the antidote for - pentagonorrhea?The above intro was written by master lyricist Yip Harburg, who wrote lyrics for songs like "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?"

CW: g-slur (for traveling people) used in song lyrics
"The War Is Over" by Phil Ochs – my latest song obsession. Those lyrics, holy shit. He could do bitter sarcasm like nobody else, made all the more powerful by his sweet, smooth voice.
This was written about the Vietnam War but somehow still feels very topical...
Official version:

"An outspoken group on many subjects. Ten degrees to the left of center in good times, ten degrees to the right of center if it affects them personally...
"Sure, once I was young and impulsive /
I wore every conceivable pin /
Even went to socialist meetings /
Learned all the old union hymns /
Ah, but I've grown older and wiser /
And that's why I'm turning you in /
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal"-- Phil Ochs

And here's to the schools of Mississippi /
Where they're teaching all the children /
That they don't have to care /
All the rudiments of hatred /
Are present everywhere /
And every single classroom /
Is a factory of despair /
And there's nobody learning /
Such a foreign word as "fair" /Oh here's to the land you've torn out the heart of /
Mississippi find yourself another country to be part of-- Phil Ochs
