Fun is the enjoyment of pleasure and, according to Johan Huizinga, "an absolutely primary category of life, familiar to everybody at a glance right down to the animal level." Fun may be encountered in many human activities during work, social functions, recreation and play, and even seemingly mundane activities of daily living. Fun may often have little to no logical basis, and opinions on whether or not an activity is fun may differ. The distinction between enjoyment and fun is difficult to articulate but real, fun being a more spontaneous, playful, or active event. The perception of time is shortened when one is "having fun".
The original meaning of "fun" relates to a hoax or practical joke, a meaning still retained in the phrase "to poke fun at".

Fei-Hong has learned a style of fighting called "Drunken Boxing", which makes him a dangerous person to cross. Unfortunately, his father is opposed to his engaging in any kind of fighting, let alone drunken boxing. Consequently, Fei-Hong not only has to fight against the foreigners, but he must overcome his father's antagonism as well.

Last night's gig didn't go to well!
People fighting near the stage
a cable ripped and fucked the sound
Refrain:
Fighting! Beating!
There must be another way
All we ask is to have a good time
Refrain
Solo: Axel, Andy
Always the same -
I postpone things to the very end
No one's to blame - except for myself
I've had three weeks to write this song-
I put it off - Too tired!
Tomorrow It's due now I must compose -
I'm really wired - Too bad!
Absence of mind - mu brain's still
void of inspired thoughts
Falling behind -
the hours pass on my digital clock
