Written by Pete Townshend, the song reflects personal thoughts on the Cold War, and contains lyrics referring to the end of World War II: {{quote|Galbraith took his pen to break down the men of the German army defeated On the nineteenth day of a spring day in May, Albert Speer was deleted And as soon as the battle was over, I was born in victorious clover And I've never been shot at or gassed never tortured or stabbed And I'm sure - I'll never know war}} Townshend felt confident about the song, even stating that he felt it was possibly one of the best tracks the Who ever did.[1] Parke Puterbaugh of Rolling Stone magazine stated that the song was the key to the album, as he wrote in his 1982 review of It's Hard: {{quote|'I've Known No War,' [is] a song that could become an anthem to our generation much the way 'Won't Get Fooled Again' did a decade ago. 'I've Known No War' is one conscientious objector's statement of defiant opposition, tempered by the realities of the present day. To wit, that a nuclear war, despite our best pacifistic inclinations, is in the hands of a few men who will simply decide to push a button, and that the ensuing annihilation will be sudden, certain and eternal.[2]}}References1. ^The Hypertext Who › Liner Notes › It's Hard {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050928103004/http://www.thewho.net/linernotes/It%27sHard.htm |date=2005-09-28 }} {{It's Hard}}2. ^[https://www.rollingstone.com/reviews/album/259022/its_hard It's Hard : The Who : Review : Rolling Stone] 6 : The Who songs|1982 songs|Songs written by Pete Townshend|Song recordings produced by Glyn Johns|Songs about nuclear war and weapons|Songs about World War II |
