[Intro: JAY-Z & Pitbull]
Push (You know what it is)
Money over broads, you got It—fuck Bush
(Someone had to speak about it)
[Chorus]
Hoo hoo, ha ha, war war
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, go ahead
Hoo hoo, ha ha, war war
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, go ahead
[Verse 1]
Hmm, where should I start?
Let's start with how Bush tore the country apart
Hmm, now let's talk facts
All they want is oil in Iraq, attention
We got Saddam, but no Bin Laden
Looks like he's fighting the war for his daddy
Osama's people, Bush's people
Them motherfuckers like family, attention
Terrorists this, terrorists that
The real terrorists are in the White House, fact
First they rob the election they get empowered and
Boom! (Someone had to speak about it)
[Chorus]
Hoo hoo, ha ha, war war
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, go ahead
Hoo hoo, ha ha, war war
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, go ahead
[Verse 1]
Hmm, where should I start?
Let's start with how Bush tore the country apart
Hmm, now let's talk facts
All they want is oil in Iraq, attention
We got Saddam, but no Bin Laden
Looks like he's fighting the war for his daddy
Osama's people, Bush's people
Them motherfuckers like family, attention
Terrorists this, terrorists that
The real terrorists are in the White House, fact
First, they rob the election, they get empowered and
Boom! There go the towers! Attention
I smell a revolution
Not that Ché Guevara, Castro shit, that's asshole shit
Money is the root of all evil
Not to mention that's where I first read "In God We Trust", attention
[Chorus]
Hoo hoo, ha ha, war war
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, go ahead
Hoo hoo, ha ha, war war
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, go ahead
[Verse 2]
Now they hate it, take it or leave it
Believe it or not, the whole country is hated
That's cause our president's greedy
Bombing Iraq for no reason, attention
Why are these soldiers losing their life for?
Even they ask, "What the hell is this fight for?"
No money, no jobs and people tell the hood don't rob, attention
Last time I checked, war means more money
For these corporate companies, yeah that's correct
Ain't Bush involved with all these companies?
Yeah that's correct, aww shit, attention
Misery loves company
So, don't be surprised If them boys come for me
So if I end up missing, at least ya'll know I wasn't bullshittin', attention
[Chorus: Pitbull & DJ Drama]
Hoo hoo, ha ha, war war
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, go ahead
Hoo hoo, ha ha, war war
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, go ahead
Fix your face and pay attention
[Bridge]
Como dijo la bruja, we ain't here to beat around the bush, we here to beat Bush
Como dijo la bruja, we ain't here to beat around the bush, we here to beat Bush
Como dijo la bruja, we ain't here to beat around the bush, we here to beat Bush
Como dijo la bruja, we ain't here to beat around the bush, we here to beat Bush
[Chorus]
Hoo hoo, ha ha, war war
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, go ahead
Hoo hoo, ha ha, war war
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, go ahead
[Outro: JAY-Z]
Push
Money over broads, you got it—fuck Bush
