Written by Elvis Costello (lyrics) and Clive Langer (music), during the Falklands War of 1982..it's that kinda song which gets under your skin and stays there..the awesome contribution of jazz trumpeter Chet Baker is outstanding !! You will find this beauty on the1983 album "Punch the Clock"..the tune was originally written for Robert Wyatt..but Elvis rewrote it and made it his own
