All is fair in love and we're in love Now that everybody's dead we can finally talk Can vanity and happiness coexist? All the lovers we've takin' in direct view of the enemy And we shift each other's body to accept the bullet And continue the pleasure The treasures of battle It's only for the wounded, the purple-hearted Why must you try to ruin my peace of mind? And they were only words and I never meant them I never loved you Even in my weakness You were fuel for the fire cannon fodder And my grandpa drank, fell and broke his face in two When the cops arrived he exclaimed "I fought in world war II" And then carried him to darkened hospital room And saw him moan and curse and he remembers you And we can't identify the enemy And it could be you so it'll cost you And it only cost me my wife And my job ?? And my mom and I went to identify the body And I wanted to see but she wouldn't let me I had to wait for the military cemetery And when we got there this is what she said to me "Love and war, in heaven and in hell You get what you deserve You'd better spread it well All is fair in love and war and love A civil world like this it always sells itself"
