- War LyricsOh 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 has caused unrest
Among the younger generation
Induction then destruction
Who wants to die?
War-huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War-huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Yeah
War-I despise
'Cos 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-huh
It's an enemy of all mankind
No point of war
'Cos you're a man
[Repeat]
Give it to me one time-now
Give it to me one time-now
War has shattered
Many young men's dreams
We've got no place for it today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord, there's just got to be a better way
It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker
War
War
War-Good God, now
Now
Give it to me one time now
Now now
What is it good for?
Say it again
There's got to be a better way-yeah
What is it good for?
War has caused unrest
Among the younger generation
Induction then destruction
Who wants to die?
War-huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War-huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Yeah
War-I despise
'Cos 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
War-huh
It's an enemy of all mankind
No point of war
'Cos you're a man
[Repeat]
Give it to me one time-now
Give it to me one time-now
War has shattered
Many young men's dreams
We've got no place for it today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord, there's just got to be a better way
It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker
War
War
War-Good God, now
Now
Give it to me one time now
Now now
What is it good for?

When we think about what all of this might truly mean, Frankie Goes to Hollywood's song 'War' is quite a strong critique of the war in its destructive nature and the impact that it has on innocent lives, especially the mourning that comes to the families who get their members slain in conflicts. The words are declaring loud that war should not be fought and that the world should recognize the craziness and the abomination it brings; hence, the listeners are urged to ponder the purpose and effect of the warring. War lyrics mostly have social commentary, despair, angst, anger, and reflection as their main themes. To the contrary, the song equally brings in anti-war feeling and loss and grief as major themes. The lyrics are very much dealing with the issue of war and its aftermath consisting of destruction and death, which may not be appropriate for younger children. Though there is neither harsh language nor graphic content, the adult themes still require parental guidance.
