Too often this song is seen as an unwavering patriotic song, which to me indicates that people aren't paying attention to all the lyrics. This song is about the country forcing the poor and downtrodden to go to war on behalf of people they will never meet and then expected to, somehow, return to normal. When understood in it's appropriate context, this song is better than anything uncritical listeners hear.
