Letra War de Frankie Goes To Hollywood original

The logic of war seem to be that if the belligerent can fight, he will fight
That leaders will not surrender until surrender is academic
How as a national leader to explain the sacrifice of so much for nothing
Well, relax, I can explain, I don't wanna die

War, what is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, say it again
War, what is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
War, I despise 'cause it means destruction of innocent lives
War means tears to thousands of mother how
When their sons go off to fight and lose their lives
I said, 'War, good god y'all, what is it good for?'
Absolutely nothing, say it again
War, oh lord, what is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, listen to me
(War) It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
(War) Friend only to the undertaker
(War) It's an enemy of all mankind
The point of war blows through a man
War has caused unrest among the younger generation
Induction, then destruction
Who wants to die?
War, what is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, say it again
War, what is it good for?
Absolutely (Nothing)
Say it, say it
War, war
(War) It has shattered many young man's dreams
He's got no place for it here today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But lord knows, there has got to be a better way
War, good god, what is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it, say it
What is it good for? (Oh lord)
Absolutely nothing, alleluia
(War) It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
(War) Friend only to the undertaker
War, war, war, war
(War) What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, say it
War, good god now, what is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, say it
War, oh lord, there's got to be a better way
Say it again, 'There's got to be a better way'
What is it good for?
War, what is it good for?
