| War I despise
|
| 'Cause it means destruction of innocent lives
|
| War means tears to thousands of mothers' eyes
|
| When their sons go out 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) Lord, lord, lord, 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, awwww
|
| War is the enemy of all mankind
|
| The thought of war blows my mind
|
| War has caused unrest, within the younger generation
|
| Induction then destruction. |
| Who wants to die?
|
| Awwww!
|
| (War, huh) good God y’all
|
| (What is it good for?) Absolutely nothing, say it, say it, say it
|
| (War, huh) Oh-ohh yeah, huh
|
| (What is it good for?) Absolutely nothing
|
| Listen to me
|
| (War), It ain’t nothing but a heartbreaker
|
| (War), It’s got one friend, that’s the undertaker, awwww
|
| War has shattered many young men’s dreams
|
| Made them disabled, bitter and mean
|
| Life is much too short and precious to be fighting wars these days
|
| War can’t give life, it can only take it away, awwww!
|
| (War, huh) Good God y’all
|
| (What is it good for?) Absolutely nothing, say it
|
| (War, huh) Lord, lord, lord, lord
|
| (What is it good for?) Oh, absolutely nothing
|
| Listen to me
|
| (War), It ain’t nothing but a heartbreaker
|
| (War), Friend only to the undertaker, woooo!
|
| 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 gotta be a better way, ooohhh
|
| (War, huh) Good God y’all
|
| (What is it good for?) You tell me, say it, say it, say it, say it
|
| (War, huh) good God y’all
|
| (What is it good for?) Stand up and shout it (Nothing) |
