Lyrics:

War-huh-yeah

what is it good for?

absolutely nothing

Say it again

War-I despise

'Cos it means destruction

Of innocent lives

War means tears

To thousands of mothers how

When their sons go off to fight

And lose their lives

I said

War-huh

It ain't nothing but a heartbreak

War

Friend only to the undertaker

It's an 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?

It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker

War

it got one friend that's the undertaker

War has shattered

Many young men'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

It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker

War

Friend only to the undertaker

We've got no place for it today

They say we must fight to keep our freedom

But Lord knows there's just got to be a better way

War

War

War-Good God, yall

Give it to me, yeah

What is it good for?
