Stiff Little Fingers

Is That What You Fought The War For

Yes, I know you did your bit back then. But what was it you won?
Take a good look round 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

Is that what you fought the war for. Is that what you fought the war for
Is that what you fought the war for. Is that what you fought the war for

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 if you never ask yourself

Is that what you fought the war for. Is that what you fought the war for
Is that what you fought the war for. Is that what you fought the war for

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

Is that what you fought the war for. Is that what you fought the war for
Is that what you fought the war for. Is that what you fought the war for

Mirror lyrics:

Is that what you fought the war for. Is that what you fought the war for
Is that what you fought the war for. Is that what you fought the war for

We won't be taken like your generation again
All you need remember is
And in the light of day
At the going down of the sun

Is that what you fought the war for. Is that what you fought the war for
Is that what you fought the war for. Is that what you fought the war for

And I wonder if you never ask yourself
Then I wonder if you understand at all.

And buys off just enough to vote. Pass by the other side
When still the homeless, jobless cry. When money shouts and lies
When Britain's flag is a badge of hate. And just the fair can play
When still the muscles make the man. And men make women pay

Is that what you fought the war for. Is that what you fought the war for
Is that what you fought the war for. Is that what you fought the war for

And I wonder if you ever ask yourself
Then I wonder if you understand at all.
When free health care can save your life. But queue until you die
When everyone has an equal chance to live the life they buy

And I wonder if you ever ask yourself
And I wonder if you understand at all.
Take a good look round you now. Whose side were you on?
Yes, I know you did your bit back then. But what was it you won?
