{{Template:Lyrics|Now, This Is Fun|
Here speaks the voice of reason
It's talking to me
Loud and clearly
And obviously
It's something to say
Here comes another sentence
It is relentless
It tries my patience
But nevertheless
It's for our concern
We can't see the benefits
So we'll ignore it
Or disobey it
And then we'll say that
This is fun
This is real fun
This is fun

Notes

In the 1982-01-21 issue of Smash Hits, Andy Fletcher says:

"On the new B-side, 'Reason To Be' [working title, ed.], we tried to sound… really… mean! Didn't work though."

On this photo of the mastertape, its title was originally 'Reason For Fun'.

Lyrics


Now, This Is Fun

Here speaks the voice of reason

It's talking to me

Loud and clearly

And obviously

It's something to say


Here comes another sentence

It is relentless

It tries my patience

But nevertheless

It's for our concern


We can't see the benefits

So we'll ignore it

Or disobey it

And then we'll say that

This is fun


This is real fun

This is fun
