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
'cause 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
'cause you're a man

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?
