What Fun! Is a Dutch band from the 80's. This song from 1983 was their biggest hit. It's about the stupidity of war. In this case based on the Falkland War.
(The right side won, the right side won 'Cause god's on our side It had to be done, it had to be done It's a pity, it's a pity men died)
The right, the right side won 'Cause god's on our side It had to, it had to be done It's a pity, a pity men died
We cannot, we cannot allow That treasonous remark We must, must show them now We don't mean to lark
We haven't, we haven't a doubt (We haven't a doubt) That we're in the right If you don't look out (That we're in the right) You'll suffer their plight
The heroes, the heroes return (We haven't a doubt) And the royalty attends While the injured learn
That the pain never ends (That we're in the right) (That we're in the right) (That we're in the right) That the pain never ends (That we're in the right)
(That we're in the right) That the pain never! (That we're in the right) (That we're in the right) That the pain never ends (That we're in the right)
As the story goes the enemy are cruel They're out to impose their hard fascist rule I said they're out to impose their hard fascist rule They're out to impose their hard fascist rule
The time soon comes when this crisis is war The media succumbs and opposes a thaw! (It had to be done, it had to be done It's a pity, it's a pity men died)
The heroes return and the royalty attends While the injured learn that the pain never ends I said the injured learn that the pain never ends I said the injured learn that the pain never ends
My healed chest wound Transformed into a gate Where I receive love from Where I give love from And I care for you, care for you I care for you, care for you Care for you, care for you I care for you, care for you
