๐ Lyrics
If you grew up in the sixties, you grew up, with war on TV every night
A war that your friends were involved in
And ah, I wanna do this song tonight for all the young people out there
If you're in your teens
'Cause I remember, a lot of my friends when we were 17 or 18, we didn't
Have much of a chance to think about how we felt about a lot of things
And ah, the next time, they're gonna be lookin' at you
And you're gonna need a lot of information to know, what you're gonna want to do
Because in 1985, blind faith in your leaders, or in anything, will get you killed
'Cause what I'm talkin' about here is...
War, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothin', say it again
War wo-o-o-yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothin', come on
War is something that I despise
For it means the destruction of innocent lives
A thousand brothers, and mothers cry
When their sons go off to fight, to give their lives in
War wo-o-o-yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothin', say it again
War no-no-no-yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothin'
War
It aint nothin' but a heart breaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker
Yeh, the war's the enemy of all mankind
The thought of war explodes my mind
Handed down from generation to generation
Induction, destruction
Who wants to die, in a...
War, wo-wo-no-no
What is it good for
Absolutely nothin'
Say it again
War, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothin'
Come on now
War
It aint nothin' but a heart breaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker
War has shattered many young men's dreams
Made them disabled, bitter and mean
Life is too precious to be fightin' wars each day
War can't give life, it can only take it away
War, oh-woh-oh-yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothin'
Say it again
War, good God now
What is it good for
Absolutely nothin'
Peace, love and understanding, darling
There must be some place for these things today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord there's got to be another way, instead of this...
War, wo-wo-o-yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothin'
Say it again
War, good God
What is it good for
Absolutely nothin'
Come on now
War, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothin'
Say it again
War, huh, oh yeah
What is it good for
(Absolutely nothin')
I'm talkin' 'bout
War!
A war that your friends were involved in
