[Chorus] What are we fighting for for? Ah, ah What are we fighting for for? Ah, ah Why can't we make love, not war? You beat my heart in two, you Made it black and blue Black and blue Made it black and blue Black and blue [Verse] Never thought our love, would turn domestic I've finally had enough, I won't accept it I can't let you put your hands on me Be damned if I turn, the other cheek [Chorus] What are we fighting for for? Ah, ah What are we fighting for for? Ah, ah Why can't we make love, not war? You beat my heart in two, you Made it black and blue Black and blue Made it black and blue Black and blue [Bridge] All our sticks and stones, finally turned into muck Now we have to go, and cover up another scar We did more damage, than we had (go and save yourself) One of us goin' end up in jail And it won't be me So what are we (fighting for)? What are we, what are we What are we [Chorus] So what are we (fighting for)? What are we, what are we What are we What are we fighting for for? Ah, ah Why can't we make love, not war? You beat my heart in two, you Made it black and blue Black and blue Made it black and blue Black and blue
