. . . WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR!

---------------------------------

"War" by Edwin Star
http://www.tomandrodna.com/songs/War.mp3

Lyrics
War, huh, yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Uh-huh huh
War, huh, yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again, y'all

War, huh,
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Listen to me

Ohhh, war, I despise
Cause it means destruction
Of innocent lives

War means tears
To thousands of mothers eyes
When their sons go to fight
And lose their lives

Ooh, war, huh
Good God, y'all
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again

War, whoa,
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Listen to me

War, it ain't nothing
But a heartbreaker
Friends only to the undertaker
Ooooh, war
It's an enemy to all mankind
The point of war blows my mind
War has caused unrest
Within the younger generation
Induction then destruction
Who wants to die

Aaaaah, war-huh
Good God y'all
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War, huh
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Listen to me

War, huh, yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Come on, let me hear ya

War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
It's got one friend
That's the undertaker
War has shattered
Many a young mans dreams
Made him disabled, bitter and mean
Life is much to short and precious
To spend fighting wars these days
War can't give life
It can only take it away

Ooooh, war, huh
Ooh yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again, y'all

War, whoa,
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Come on, sing it

War, whoa,
Come on and shout it, y'all
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Come on, come on now

It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
Friends only to the undertaker

Peace, love and understanding
Is there no place for them today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord knows there's got to be a better way

Ooooooh, war, huh
Good God y'all
What is it good for
absolutely nothing
Say it again, y'all

War, huh
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again, y'all

What is it good for
Absolutely nothing

And my personal favorite (for a long, loooooonnnng time) anti-war song . . .

"War Pigs" by Black Sabbath 
http://www.tomandrodna.com/Songs/Black_Sabbath/War_Pigs.mp3

Generals gathered in their masses,
just like witches at black masses.
Evil minds that plot destruction,
sorcerer of death's construction.
In the fields the bodies burning,
as the war machine keeps turning.
Death and hatred to mankind,
poisoning their brainwashed minds...Oh lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor

Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait `till their judgement day comes, yeah!

Now in darkness, world stops turning,
ashes where the bodies burning.
No more war pigs have the power,
hand of god has struck the hour.
Day of judgement, god is calling,
on their knees the war pigs crawling.
Begging mercy for their sins,
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings...Oh lord, yeah

(special note about "War Pigs" - Back when I was in the Army stationed at Muna Kaserne [Bamberg, Germany] from March '71 to December '72 . . . My friends and I would start weekend parties from my barracks room after work on Friday.  To let the guys know that it was time to gather at SP4 Hansen's room, I would put this song on my record player and crank it up to where you could hear it at the mess hall. . . . Those were the days, my friend.)

But first you must learn how to smile as you kill,
If you want to be like the folks on the hill."
