Excerpt
Fun is an odd piece and is intricate, bumpy, while mixed with guitar riffs, horn sounds, and a cute spoken middle-eight. The song has a hint of desperation as we think we are supposed to having fun even though these days it is not like the enjoyable things we did it in the past. Fun may not be all that much fun after all. It seems to be a song that suggests we need to go out and have a good time even when fun may not be in the offing. Mark Clarke, bass, and Hilly Michaels, drums, get co-songwriting credit on this tune.

Fun
(Ian Hunter/Mark Clarke/Hilly Michaels)
I got a shower curtain stickin' to my back
And the o'd' cologne sure packs a whack
I got blood on my razor - my face is in shock
'N' my hair hangin' down like a Rastaman's locks
I think I'm ready - I'm gettin' ready
Gettin' ready Teddy - we're all gonna have fun
I gotta rock 'n' roll - rocket says "you gotta go fast"
'N' the radio's blarin' out a blast from the past
Lucille's in the back screamin' "gimme a break"
Your momma didn't tell you - that's the chance you take
It's oh so sad
When this love is all that we have
To swallow a lifetime away
With so many hours in each day
But calm your foolish heart
Our girlfriend's can't keep us apart
I'm with you every step of the way
Baby - what more can I say
The only problem is
I wanna party - get down - boogie - have a great time
Well its 36.50 for a room with a view
O' the empire state 'n' the pizza place, too
Lucille's got my body in a total eclipse
She's all lips 'n' hips - you know - one o' those trips
We're gettin' ready - she's gettin' ready
Gettin' ready Teddy - we're all gonna have fun
