"War"

War, huh, yeah

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, uh-huh, uh-huh

War, huh, yeah

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, say it again, y'all

War, huh, good god

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, listen to me

Oh war, I despise

'Cause it means destruction of innocent lives

War means tears to thousands of mothers' eyes

When their sons go off to fight and lose their lives

I said, war, huh, good god, y'all

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, say it again

War, huh, whoa-oh-whoa-oh, Lord

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, listen to me

War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreak

War, friend only to the undertaker

Oh, war, is an enemy to all mankind

The thought of war blows my mind

War has caused unrest within the younger generation

Induction then destruction, who wants to die?

Oh, war, huh, good god, y'all

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, say it, say it, say it

War, huh, uh-huh, yeah, uh

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, listen to me

War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker

War, it got one friend, that's the undertaker

Oh, war has shattered many a young man's dreams

Made him disabled, bitter and mean

Life is much too short and precious to spend fighting wars these days

War can't give life, it can only take it away

Oh, war, huh, good god, y'all

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, say it again

War, huh, whoa-oh-whoa-oh, Lord

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, listen to me

War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker

War, friend only to the undertaker

Peace, love and understanding, tell me

Is there no place for them today?

They say we must fight to keep our freedom

But lord knows there's got to be a better way

Oh, war, huh, good god, y'all

What is it good for?

You tell me, (nothing) say it, say it, say it, say it

War, huh, good god, yeah, huh

What is it good for?

Stand up and shout it (nothing)
