[00:-0.30] War - Edwin Star
[00:04.43]
[00:04.65] War' huh' yeah
[00:07.78] What is it good for
[00:09.89] Absolutely nothing
[00:11.48] Uh-huh
[00:12.97] War' huh' yeah
[00:16.21] What is it good for
[00:18.59] Absolutely nothing
[00:20.25] Say it again' y'all
[00:21.64]
[00:21.65] War' huh' good God
[00:24.97] What is it good for
[00:27.14] Absolutely nothing
[00:28.50] Listen to me
[00:29.09]
[00:29.10] Ohhh' war' I despise
[00:34.17] Because it means destruction
[00:36.75] Of innocent lives
[00:39.12]
[00:39.13] War means tears
[00:41.22] To thousands of mothers eyes
[00:43.28] When their sons go to fight
[00:45.60] And lose their lives
[00:47.42]
[00:47.43] I said' war' huh
[00:50.14] Good God' y'all
[00:51.53] What is it good for
[00:53.56] Absolutely nothing
[00:55.42] Say it again
[00:56.87]
[00:56.88] War' whoa' Lord
[01:00.12] What is it good for
[01:02.41] Absolutely nothing
[01:04.02] Listen to me
[01:05.50]
[01:05.51] War' it ain't nothing
[01:07.49] But a heartbreaker
[01:09.86] War' friend only to the undertaker
[01:13.39] Ooooh' war
[01:15.12] It's an enemy to all mankind
[01:19.03] The point of war blows my mind
[01:23.16] War has caused unrest
[01:25.04] Within the younger generation
[01:27.26] Induction then destruction
[01:29.45] Who wants to die
[01:30.97] Aaaaah' war-huh
[01:32.98] Good God y'all
[01:35.36] What is it good for
[01:37.42] Absolutely nothing
[01:39.19] Say it' say it' say it
[01:40.91] War' huh
[01:43.99] What is it good for
[01:46.19] Absolutely nothing
[01:48.11] Listen to me
[01:49.59]
[01:49.60] War' it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
[01:54.04] War' it's got one friend
[01:55.90] That's the undertaker
[01:57.52] Ooooh' war' has shattered
[02:00.50] Many a young mans dreams
[02:02.94] Made him disabled' bitter and mean
[02:07.12] Life is much to short and precious
[02:09.10] To spend fighting wars these days
[02:11.97] War can't give life
[02:13.54] It can only take it away
[02:15.65]
[02:15.66] Ooooh' war' huh
[02:18.12] Good God y'all
[02:19.46] What is it good for
[02:21.68] Absolutely nothing
[02:23.31] Say it again
[02:25.17]
[02:25.18] War' whoa' Lord
[02:28.24] What is it good for
[02:30.25] Absolutely nothing
[02:32.16] Listen to me
[02:34.38] War' it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
[02:38.06] War' friend only to the undertaker
[02:43.15] Peace' love and understanding
[02:45.89] Tell me' is there no place for them today
[02:51.24] They say we must fight to keep our *******
[02:55.35] But Lord knows there's got to be a better way
[02:59.74]
[02:59.75] Ooooooh' war' huh
[03:02.04] Good God y'all
[03:03.83] What is it good for
[03:05.83] You tell me
[03:07.00] Say it' say it' say it' say it
[03:09.28]
[03:09.29] War' huh
[03:10.49] Good God y'all
[03:12.54] What is it good for
[03:14.83] Stand up and shout it
[03:16.29] Nothing
