Original song by Prime Mortal Iranian Martyr
Written by Pete Bauman, Brian Golleher.
This song was inspired by news accounts from the Iran-Iraq war. These news accounts described the use of human wave attacks by Iran. The Iranian soldiers had no bullets, but they were given toy plastic keys and ordered to attack. The plastic keys were to open the gates of heaven.
The war is noted for being very similar to World War I. Tactics used included trench warfare, manned machine-gun posts, bayonet charges, use of barbed wire, human wave attacks and Iraq's extensive use of chemical weapons (such as mustard gas) against Iranian troops and civilians as well as Iraqi Kurds.
