War — Edwin Starr
Oh no-there’s got to be a better way
Say it again
There’s got to be a better way-yeah
What is it good for?
*War has caused unrest
Among the younger generation
Induction then destruction
Who wants to die?
War-huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War-huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Yeah
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’s an enemy of all mankind
No point of war
‘Cos you’re a man
*(Repeat)
Give it to me one time-now
Give it to me one time-now
War has shattered
Many young men’s dreams
We’ve got no place for it today
