War – what is it good for?
And combat is no good
Don’t eat wrath’s grapes
Stay out of scrapes
Do what you know you should
Spread peace not pugilism
Hum tunes, don’t spread dischord
If you don’t punch
I have a hunch
You’ll reap a large reward
Cause fighting gets you nowhere
It’s finally been said
Yes, fighting gets you nowhere
So be friendly instead
Don’t let anger be the boss of you
He pays a poor income
Act violently
And you’ll soon see
How petty life becomes
So fill trenches with geraniums
Put down your boxing gloves
Let’s all rush in
To discussion
Harmony and love
Cause fighting gets you nowhere
It’s finally been said
Yes, fighting gets you nowhere
So be friendly instead
But sometimes fighting is okay
When you fight metaphorically
So fight the good fight
Without fighting
That’s as clear as it can be
Cause fighting gets you nowhere
It’s finally been said
Yes, fighting gets you nowhere
So be friendly instead
