Hard On For War

Can you hear the little girls asking

Daddy where have all the little boys gone

The little girls, they ask me

Daddy where have all the little boys gone

They don't tease us in classroom

They don't meet us at the mall



The little boys are fighting

They have left us all behind

The little boys are dying

To preserve our way of life

It's our patriotic duty

To make sweet love tonight



See these lovely lonesome ladies

They don't ignore me anymore

All these lonely lovely ladies

Keep on kockin' on my door

I'm the only game in town

And it's so easy to score



Now i know why dirty old men are always pushin' for war

Now i know why dirty old men are always pushin' for war

I've become a dirty old man with a hard-on for war

Hard On For War

Recorded by Mudhoney, a seminal act in the grunge and alternative rock landscape, this track exemplifies the band's raw, lo-fi aesthetic that defined the early 1990s Seattle scene. The song features the characteristic distorted guitars, driving rhythms, and vocal delivery typical of Mudhoney's discography, reflecting the DIY ethos of the era. As part of their broader catalog of influential recordings, the track captures the chaotic energy and emotional intensity that helped establish the sound of the time. Its inclusion in their body of work highlights the band's role in shaping the direction of modern rock music through their unpolished yet powerful approach to songwriting and performance.
