Hipper Than Thou is essentially School House Rock for obscure history and theology.
Hipper Than Thou is an ill fated collection of personalities with no commercial aspirations whatsoever. Our music is less bound by style than it is by talent. All songs are limited to the 9 chords our guitarist knows. Stylistically we range from Folk, to Jazz Folk, to Electric Folk, with a little Folk Rock.

Story behind the song
Sometimes war gets a bad rap just because it's a horrible, tragic, evil thing. But it did end slavery in America and facism in Europe. After all, a wise man once said, "I come not to bring peace but a sword."
Lyrics
Thank God For War There is a preacher on the street outside today. Hair, Matted up you won’t believe what he has to say. Above the traffic’s roar, Thank God for war. He, has some charts and has some graphs like Ross Perot He, speaks in moral absolutes like a recent pope. I just can’t ignore, Thank God for war. He says Facism’s pure evil. Racial Slavery, too. He thinks that war put a bullet in their future. It’s kinda crazy and it’s kinda true. I, got a dirty little secret I’m ashamed to share, I, think he’s kinda got a point, but I just don’t care, Knock it off, I implore, Thank God for war. They lost a million in the Mexican revolution. Almost 3 in the Korean War. The great war was 15 mill or so. In Ethiopia a million 4. 3.5 million in the Vietnam war. That’s the number when push comes to shove. 40 Million have HIV. So make war not love.
