Lyrics War - The Temptations

War! Hunh!
What is it good for?
Nothin'!

War! Hunh!
What is it good for?
Absolutely (nothin')
Say it again

War! Hunh!
What is it good for?
Absolutely (nothin')

War! I despise
'Cause it means destruction of innocent lives
War means tears in thousands of mother's eyes
When their sons go out to fight and lose their lives

I said
War! Hunh!
What is it good for?
Absolutely (nothin')
Say it again!

War! Hunh!
What is it good for?
Absolutely (nothin')

War
It's nothin' but a heartbreaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker

War is an enemy to all mankind
The thought of war blows my mind
War has caused unrest within the younger generation
Induction then destruction, who wants to die?

Oh war! (good God)
What is it good for?
You tell
Nothin'

War! (good God)
What is it good for?
Absolutely (nothin')
Good God

War!
Is nothin' but a heartbreaker
War!
Friend only to the undertaker

Wars have shattered many a young man's dreams
Made him disabled, bitter and mean
Life is much too short and precious
To spend fightin' wars these days
War can't give life, it can only take it away!

Oh war! (good God)
What is it good for?
Absolutely (nothin')

War! Good God almighty, listen
What is it good for?
Absolutely (nothin')

War!
It's nothin' but a heartbreaker
War!
Friend only to the undertaker

Peace, love and understandin'
Tell me, 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

I said, war!
What is it good for?
Absolutely (nothin')
Say it again

War!
Yeah, yeah, yeah
What is it good for?
Absolutely (nothin')
Say it again

War!
Nothin' but a heartbreaker
