UNFAIR

No reason
200 innocent people died
Their right to life denied.

Bodies dumped in ditches
So many, so wrong
They were not Viet Cong.

Aussies and Yanks with guns and bombs
People at home disgusted, ashamed
Innocent women and children maimed.

We wanted this war to cease
We wanted to get the hell away
Governments simply made us stay.
