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)
Man has a sense for the
discovery of beauty
How rich is the world for
one who makes you for us to show
Beauty must have power over man,
war
After the end of the war I
want to devote my self
To my thoughts for five to ten
years and to writing them down
War has caused unrest among
the younger generation
Induction then destruction,
who wants to die?
Wars come and go what remains
are only the values of culture
Then of course there is revolutionary love
Love of comrades fighting
for the people and love of people
Not an abstract people but people
one meets an d works with
When Che Guevara taught of love being
At the center of revolutionary en deavor,
he meant both
For people like Che or George
Jackson or Malcolm X
Love was the prime mover
of their struggle
That love cost them their lives,
love coupled with a man's pride
Love coupled with a man's pride
Give it to you on top, now
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, good god, now,
what is it good for?
Absolutely, nothing
Say it again, war,
what is it good for?
Ab solutely, nothing, listen to me
War, it ain't nothing but a heart breaker
War, friend only to the undertaker,
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 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, what is it good for?
