Stiff Little Fingers

Stiff Little Fingers - Is That What You Fought The War For? lyrics

rate me

Yes, I know you did your bit back then, but what was it you won?

Take a good look around you now, whose side were you on?

And I wonder if you understand at all

And I wonder if you ever ask yourself

When everyone has an equal chance to live the life they buy

When free health care can save your life, but queue until you die

Then I wonder if you understand at all

And I wonder if you ever ask yourself

(Chorus:)

Is that what you fought the war for

Is that why you fought the war

Is that what you fought the war for

Is that why you fought the war

When still the muscles make the man, and men make women pay

when Britain's flag is a badge of hate, and just the fair can play

When still the homeless, jobless cry, when money shouts and lies

and buys off just enough to vote, pass by the other side

Then I wonder if you understand at all

And I wonder do you never ask yourself

(Chorus)

At the going down of the sun

And in the light of day

All you need remember is

We won't be taken like your generation again

(Chorus)
