歌词信息：

[Intro]
(B.F.P.O)
(Army dreamers)
(Mammy's hero)
(B.F.P.O)
(Mammy's hero)

[Verse 1]
Our little army boy
Is coming home from B.F.P.O
We've a bunch of purple flowers
To decorate a mammy's hero
Mourning in the aerodrome
The weather warmer, he is colder
Four men in uniform
To carry home my little soldier

[Chorus]
(What could he do? Should have been a rock star)
But he didn't have the money for a guitar
(What could he do? Should have been a politician)
But he never had a proper education
(What could he do? Should have been a father)
But he never even made it to his twenties
What a waste, army dreamers
Oh, what a waste of army dreamers

[Verse 2]
Tears over a tin box
Oh, Jesus Christ, he wasn't to know
Like a chicken with a fox
He couldn't win the war with ego
Give the kid the pick of pips
And give him all your stripes and ribbons
Now he's sitting in his hole
He might as well have buttons and bows

[Chorus]
(What could he do? Should have been a rock star)
But he didn't have the money for a guitar
(What could he do? Should have been a politician)
But he never had a proper education
(What could he do? Should have been a father)
But he never even made it to his twenties
What a waste, army dreamers
Oh, what a waste of army dreamers
Oh, what a waste of all them army dreamers
Army dreamers, army dreamers

[Outro]
B.F.P.O
Army dreamers
Mammy's hero
B.F.P.O
Army dreamers
Mammy's hero
B.F.P.O
No hard heroes
Mammy's hero
B.F.P.O
Army dreamers
Mammy's hero
B.F.P.O
No hard heroes

【个人心得】

這首歌總在我最脆弱的時候在我腦海中響起。
很難想像這是一首1980年發布的歌曲，歌手甚至在2010年重新拍了MV。
單從歌聲還以為是童謠一樣的歌曲，但從確認歌名開始整件事就變得不太對勁起來....
---這是一首從失去兒子母親的角度唱出的反戰歌曲。
我特別觸動的是其中一段，歌詞中反覆說著孩子有可能成為什麼，搖滾巨星?政治家?甚至是一個父親?
但是歌手的下一句歌詞都會無情的撕碎幻想。
搖滾巨星? 他甚至沒錢買支吉他；
政治家? 他從沒接受過正規教育；
當一個父親? 但他甚至沒活過20歲!
每次聽到這首歌，都會有種默默迴盪的哀傷......
當然，也有不少人是透過短視頻MEME認識這首歌的，如下:
希望這首歌也能在大家的心裡留下一點位置，我們下次再見。
