(Strong/Whitfield)
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
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord, there`s just got to be a better way
It ain`t nothing but a heartbreaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker
War
War
War-Good God, now
Now
Give it to me one time now
Now now
What is it good for?
