Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy)

Close your eyes, have no fear. The monsters gone, he's on the run and your daddy's here.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy.

Before you go to sleep, say a little prayer. Every day in every way, it's getting better and better.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy.

Out on the ocean sailing away, I can hardly wait to see you to come of age.
But I guess we'll both just have to be patient cause it's a long way to go, a hard row to hoe.
Yes it's a long way to go, but in the meantime, before you cross the street, take my hand.
Life is just what happens to you while your busy making other plans.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy.

Before you go to sleep, say a little prayer. Every day in every way, it's getting better and better.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy. Darling, darling, darling Sean.
(Goodnight Sean, see you in the morning. Good night.)


Bless You

Bless you, wherever you are.  Windswept child on a shooting star.
Restless spirits depart, still we're deep in each other's hearts.

Some people say it's over now that we spread our wings,
but we know better darling, the hollow ring is only last year's echo.

Bless you, whoever you are, holding her now, be warm and kind hearted.
And remember though love is strange, now and forever our love will remain.


Borrowed Time

When I was younger, living confusion and deep despair.
When I was younger, ah, ha, living illusion of freedom and power.
When I was younger, full of ideas and broken dreams my friend.
When I was younger, ah, ha, everything simple but not so clear.
Living on borrowed time, without a thought for tomorrow.
Living on borrowed time, without a thought for tomorrow.

Now I am older, the more that I see the less that I know for sure.
Now I am older ah, ha, the future is brighter and now is the hour.
Living on borrowed time, without a thought for tomorrow.
Living on borrowed time, without a thought for tomorrow.

Good to be older, would not exchange a single day or a year.
Good to be older ah, ha, less complications, everything clear
Living on borrowed time, without a thought for tomorrow.
Living on borrowed time, without a thought for tomorrow.

Oh yes, it all seemed so bloody easier then.
You know, like what to wear, very serious like, you know, am I gonna get the little pimples?
Does she really love me, all that crap.
But now I don't bother about that shit no more, I know she loves me.
All I gotta bother about is standing up.

Alright, you can get out of that now.


Cleanup Time

Moonlight on the water, sun light on my face, you and me together, we are in our place.
The gods are in the heavens, the angels treat us well,
the oracle has spoken, We cast the perfect spell.

The queen is in the counting house counting out the money,
the king is in the kitchen, making bread and honey.
No friends and yet no enemies, absolutely free,
no rats aboard the magic ship of perfect harmony.
Now it begins, let it begin, cleanup time, cleanup time, cleanup time, cleanup time. Well...

However, far we travel, wherever we may roam, the center of the circle will always be our home.
Cleanup time, cleanup time, cleanup time, cleanup time...


Crippled Inside

You can shine your shoes and wear a suit, you can comb your hair and look quite cute.
You can hide your face behind a smile, one thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside.

You can wear a mask and paint your face, you can call yourself the human race.
You can wear a collar and a tie, one thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside.

Well now you know that your cat has nine lives, nine lives to itself.
But you only got one and a dog's life ain't fun, Momma, take a look outside.

You can go to church and sing a hymn, you can judge me by the color of my skin.
You can live a lie until you die, one thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside.
Take it, brother.

Well now you know that your cat has nine lives, nine lives to itself.
But you only got one and a dog's life ain't fun, Momma, take a look outside.
You can go to church and sing a hymn, you can judge me by the color of my skin.
You can live a lie until you die, one thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside.
One thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside.
One thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside.


Dear Yoko

Even after all these years, I miss you when your not here, I wish you were here, my dear Yoko.
Even if it's just a day, I miss you when your away, I wish you were here today, dear Yoko.
Even if it's just one night, I miss you and it don't feel right,
I wish you were here tonight, dear Yoko.
Even if it's just an hour, I wilt just like a fading flower,
Ain't nothing in the world like our love dear Yoko.

Oh, Yoko, I never ever ever ever ever ever wanna let you go.
Oh, Yoko, I never ever ever ever ever ever wanna let you go.

Even when I'm miles at sea and nowhere is the place to be,
your spirit's watching over me, dear Yoko.
Even when I watch TV, there's hole where you're supposed to be,
there's nobody lying next to me, dear Yoko.

Oh, Yoko, I never ever ever ever ever ever wanna let you go.
Oh, Yoko, I never ever ever ever ever ever wanna let you go.

Even after all this time, I miss you like the sun don't shine,
without you on my one track mind, dear Yoko.
After all is really said and done, the two of us are really one.
The gods have really smiled upon our love, dear Yoko.


Give Peace A Chance (Lennon/McCartney)

Everybody's talking about Bagism, Shagism, Dragism, Madism, Ragism, Tagism,
This-ism, that-ism, isn't it the most?
All we are saying is give peace a chance. All we are saying is give peace a chance.

C'mon, everybody's talking about Ministers, Sinisters, Banisters and canisters,
Bishops and Fishops and Rabbis and Popeyes, and bye byes, and bye byes.
All we are saying is give peace a chance. All we are saying is give peace a chance.

Let me tell you now, everybody's talking about revolution, evolution, masturbation,
flagellation, regulation, integrations, meditations, United Nations, congratulations.
All we are saying is give peace a chance. All we are saying is give peace a chance.

All right, everybody's talking about John and Yoko, Timmy Leary, Rosemary, Tommy Smothers, Bobby Dylan,
Tommy Cooper, Derek Taylor, Norman Mailer, Alan Ginsberg, Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Hare, Hare Krishna.
All we are saying is give peace a chance. All we are saying is give peace a chance...


God

God is a concept by which we measure, our pain, I'll say it again.
God is a concept by which we measure our pain.

I don't believe in magic, I don't believe in I-Ching, I don't believe in Bible,
I don't believe in tarot, I don't believe in Hitler, I don't believe in Jesus,
I don't believe in Kennedy, I don't believe in Buddha, I don't believe in Mantra,
I don't believe in Gita, I don't believe in Yoga, I don't believe in kings, I don't believe in Elvis,
I don't believe in Zimmerman, I don't believe in Beatles,

I just believe in me, Yoko and me and that's reality.
The dream is over, what can I say? The dream is over yesterday.
I was the dream weaver, but now I'm reborn. I was the Walrus, but now I'm John.
And so dear friends, you'll just have to carry on. The dream is over.


Grow Old With Me

Grow old along with me, the best is yet to be. When our time has come, we will be as one.
God bless our love, God bless our love.

Grow old along with me, two branches of one tree, face the setting sun when the day is done.
God bless our love, God bless our love.

Spending our lives together, man and wife together, world without end, world without end.

Grow old along with me, whatever fate decrees, we will see it through for our love is true.
God bless our love, God bless our love.


Happy Xmas (War Is Over)

And so this is Christmas and what have you done? Another year over, a new one just begun.
And so this is Christmas, I hope you have fun. The near and the dear one, the old and the young.
A very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year, let's hope it's a good one without any fear.

(War is over if you want it, war is over now...)
And so this is Christmas for weak and for strong, for rich and the poor ones, the road is so long.
And so happy Christmas for black and for white, for yellow and red ones, let's stop all the fight.
A very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year, let's hope it's a good one without any fear.

And so this is Christmas and what have we done, another year over a new one just begun.
And so happy Christmas, we hope you have fun.
The near and the dear one, the old and the young
A very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year, let's hope it's a good one without any fear.
War is over if you want it, war is over now.  
Happy Christmas, happy Christmas...


Hard Times are Over (Lennon/Ono)

It's been very hard, but it's getting easier now, hard times are over, over for a while.
The leaves are shining in the sun and smiling inside,
you and I watching each other on a street corner, cars and buses and planes and people go by.
But we don't care, we want to know, we want to know in each other's eyes
that hard times are over, over for sometime.

Hard times are over, hard times are over, hard times are over, over for a while.
It's been very rough, but it's getting easier now, hard times are over, over for a while.

The streams are twinkling in the sun, and I'm smiling inside,
you and I walking together round the street corner,
hard times are over, hard times are over, hard times are over, over for a while.


Hold On

Hold on John, John hold on, it's gonna be alright. You're gonna win the fight.
Hold on Yoko, Yoko hold on, it's gonna be alright. You're gonna make the flight.
When you're by yourself and there's no one else,
you just have yourself and you tell yourself just to hold on. (Cookie!)

Hold on world, world hold on, it's gonna be alright. You're gonna see the light.
When you're one, really one, well, you get things done like they've never been done so hold on.


How?

How can I go forward when I don't know which way I'm facing?
How can I go forward when I don't know which way to turn?
How can I go forward into something I'm not sure of? Oh no, oh no.

How can I have feeling when I don't know if it's a feeling?
How can I feel something if I just don't know how to feel?
How can I have feelings when my feelings have always been denied? Oh no, oh no.

You know life can be long and you got to be so strong.
And the world is so tough, sometimes I feel I've had enough.
How can I give love when I don't know what it is I'm giving?
How can I give love when I just don't know how to give?
How can I give love when love is something I ain't never had? Oh no, oh no.

You know life can be long and you got to be so strong.
And the world, she is tough, sometimes I feel I've had enough.
How can we go forward when we don't know which way we're facing?
How can we go forward when we don't know which way to turn?
How can we go forward into something we're not sure of? Oh no, oh no.


How Do You Sleep?

So Sgt. Pepper took you by surprise, you better see right through that mother's eyes.
Those freaks was right when they said you was dead,
the one mistake you made was in your head.
Ah, how do you sleep? Ah, how do you sleep at night?
Ah, how do you sleep? Ah, how do you sleep at night?

You live with straights who tell you, you was king. Jump when your Momma tell you anything.
The only thing you done was "Yesterday," and since you're gone you're just "Another Day."
Ah, how do you sleep? Ah, how do you sleep at night?
Ah, how do you sleep? Ah, how do you sleep at night?

A pretty face may last a year or two but pretty soon they'll see what you can do.
The sound you make is Muzak to my ears, you must have learned something in all those years.
Ah, how do you sleep? Ah, how do you sleep at night?
Ah, how do you sleep? Ah, how do you sleep at night?


I'm Losing You

Here in some stranger's room, late in the afternoon, what am I doing here at all?
Ain't no doubt about it, I'm losing you,

Somehow the wires have crossed, communication's lost, can't even get you on the telephone.
Just got to shout about it, I'm losing you.

Here in the valley of indecision, I don't know what to do,
I feel you slipping away, I feel you slipping away, I'm losing you, I'm losing you.

You say your not getting enough, but I remind you of all that bad stuff,
so what the hell am I supposed to do? Just put a Band-Aid on it
and stop the bleeding now, stop the bleeding now.

I know I hurt you then, but that was way back when, well, do you still have to carry that cross?
Don't want to hear about it, I'm losing you, I'm losing you.


I'm Stepping Out

Woke up this morning, blues around my head, no need to ask the reason why.
Went to the kitchen and lit a cigarette, blew my worries to the sky.
I'm stepping out, I'm stepping out, I'm stepping out, I'm stepping out.

If it don't feel right, you don't have to do it.
Just leave a message on the phone and tell them to screw it.
After all is said and done you can't go pleasing everyone so screw it.
I'm stepping out, I'm stepping out, I'm stepping out, babe, I'm stepping out.

Baby's sleeping, the cats have all been blessed ain't nothing doing on TV (summer repeats).
Put on my space suit, I got to look my best, I'm going out to do the city.
I'm stepping out, I'm stepping out, I'm stepping out, babe I'm stepping out. (boogie)

I'm stepping out (hold it down), I'm stepping out, I'm stepping out, gotta gotta gotta gotta get out.
I'm stepping out, babe, just awhile, ain't been out for days, gotta do it tonight,
Gimme a break, gimme a break, gotta get out, gotta get out just for a while, just for the night.
I'll be in before one...or two...or three...goodbye!!!


Imagine

Imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try. No hell below us, above us only sky.
Imagine all the people living for today, ah.

Imagine there's no countries, it isn't hard to do. Nothing to kill or die for and no religion, too.
Imagine all the people living life in peace, you,
you may say I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us and the world will be as one.

Imagine no possessions. I wonder if you can.
No need for greed or hunger or brotherhood of man.
Imagine all the people sharing all the world, you,
you may say I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us and the world will be as one.


Instant Karma

Instant karma's gonna get you, gonna knock you right on the head.
You better get yourself together, pretty soon you're gonna be dead.
What in the world you thinking of, laughing in the face of love?
What on earth you trying to do? It's up to you, yeah you.

Instant karma's gonna get you, gonna look you right in the face.
Better get yourself together darling, join the human race.
How in the world you gonna see laughing at fools like me?
Who on earth do you think you are? A superstar? Well, right you are!
Well, we all shine on like the moon and the stars and the sun.
Well, we all shine on, everyone, come on.

Instant Karma's gonna get you, gonna knock you off your feet.
Better recognize your brothers, everyone you meet.
Why in the world are we here? Surely not to live in pain and fear.
Why on earth are you there when you're everywhere? Come and get your share.
Well, we all shine on like the moon and the stars and the sun.
Well, we all shine on, come on and on and on and on.

Well, we all shine on like the moon and the stars and the sun.
Well, we all shine on, on and on and on and on.
Well, we all shine on like the moon and the stars and the sun.
Well, we all shine on like the moon and the stars and the sun...


Jealous Guy

I was dreaming of the past and my heart was beating fast.
I began to lose control, I began to lose control.
I didn't mean to hurt you, I'm sorry that I made you cry.
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you, I'm just a jealous guy.

I was feeling insecure, you might not love me anymore.
I was shivering inside, I was shivering inside.
I didn't mean to hurt you, I'm sorry that I made you cry.
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you, I'm just a jealous guy.

I didn't mean to hurt you, I'm sorry that I made you cry.
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you, I'm just a jealous guy.

I was trying to catch your eyes, thought that you was trying to hide.
I was swallowing my pain, I was swallowing my pain.
I didn't mean to hurt you, I'm sorry that I made you cry.
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you, I'm just a jealous guy, watch out,
I'm just a jealous guy, look out babe, I'm just a jealous guy.


(Just Like) Starting Over

Our life, together is so precious, together, we have grown, we have grown.
Although our love is still special, let's take our chance and fly away somewhere alone.

It's been so long since we took the time, no one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly.
But when I see you darling, it's like we both are falling in love again,
it'll be just like starting over, starting over.

Everyday we used to make it, love, why can't we be making love nice and easy?
It's time to spread our wings and fly, don't let another day go by my love,
it'll be just like starting over, starting over.

Why don't we take off alone, take a trip far, far away.
We'll be together on our own again, like we used to in the early days. Well, well, well darling,
It's been so long since we took the time, no one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly.
But when I see you darling, it's like we both are falling in love again,
it'll be just like starting over, starting over. Look out!

Our life, together is so precious, together, we have grown, we have grown.
Although our love is still special, let's take our chance and fly away somewhere...
Staring over, starting over...


Love

Love is real, real is love. Love is feeling, feeling love. Love is wanting to be loved.
Love is touch, touch is love. Love is reaching, reaching love. Love is asking to be loved.
Love is you, you and me. Love is knowing we can be.

Love is free, free is love. Love is living, living love. Love is needing to be loved.


Mind Games

We're playing those mind games together, pushing the barriers, planting seeds.
Playing the mind guerrilla, chanting the mantra, peace on earth.
We all been playing those mind games forever, Some kind of druid dude lifting the veil.
Doing the mind guerrilla, some call it magic, the search for the grail.
Love is the answer and you know that for sure.
Love is a flower, you got to let it, you got to let it grow.

So keep on playing those mind games together. Faith in the future, out of the now.
You just can't beat on those mind guerrillas. Absolute elsewhere in the stones of your mind.
Yeah, we're playing those mind games forever. Projecting our images in space and in time.
Yes is the answer and you know that for sure.
Yes is surrender, you got to let it, you got to let it go.

So keep on playing those mind games together, doing the ritual dance in the sun.
Millions of mind guerrillas, putting their soul power to the karmic wheel.
Keep on playing those mind games forever, raising the spirit of peace and love.
Love. I want you to make love, not war, I know you've heard it before.


Mother

Mother, you had me, but I never had you. I wanted you, you didn't want me.
So I, I just got to tell you goodbye, goodbye.

Father, you left me, but I never left you. I needed you, you didn't need me.
So I, I just got to tell you goodbye, goodbye.

Children, don't do what I have done. I couldn't walk and I tried to run.
So I, I just got to tell you goodbye, goodbye.
Mama don't go, Daddy come home...


New York City

Standing on the corner, just me and Yoko Ono, we was waiting for Jerry to land.
Up come a man with a guitar in his hand, singing, "Have a marijuana if you can."
His name was David Peel and we found that he was real,
he sang, "The Pope smokes dope every day."
Up come a policeman shoved us up the street, singing, "Power to the people today!"
New York City, New York City, New York City, que pasa, New York?  Que pasa, New York?  Hey!

Well down to Max's Kansas City, got down the nitty gritty with the Elephants Memory Band.
Laid something down as the news spread around about the Plastic Ono Elephants Memory Band.
And we played some funky boogie and laid some tutti frutti singing, "Long Tall Sally's a man."
Up come a preacherman trying to be a teacher singing, "God's a red herring in drag!"
New York City, New York City, New York City, que pasa, New York?  Que pasa, New York?  Hey!

New York City, New York City, New York City, que pasa, New York?  Que pasa, New York?  Hey!

Well we did the Staten Island Ferry making movies for the telly,
played the Fillmore and Apollo for freedom.
Tried to shake our image just a cycling through the Village
but found that we had left it back in London.
Well, nobody came to bug us, hustle us or shove us so we decided to make it our home.
If the Man wants to shove us out we gonna jump and shout, the Statue of Liberty said, "Come!"
New York City, New York City, New York City, que pasa, New York?  Que pasa, New York?  Hey!

New York City, New York City, New York City, que pasa, New York?  Que pasa, New York?  Hey!


Nobody Told Me

Everybody's talking and no one says a word, everybody's making love and no one really cares.
There's Nazis in the bathroom just below the stairs.

Always something happening and nothing going on,
there's always something cooking and nothing in the pot.
They're starving back in China so finish what you got.
Nobody told me there'd be days like these. Nobody told me there'd be days like these.
Nobody told me there'd be days like these. Strange days indeed, strange days indeed.

Everybody's running and no one makes a move, everyone's a winner and nothing left to lose.
There's a little yellow idol to the north of Katmandu.

Everybody's flying and no one leaves the ground, everybody's crying and no one makes a sound.
There's a place for us in movies, you just gotta lay around.
Nobody told me there'd be days like these. Nobody told me there'd be days like these.
Nobody told me there'd be days like these. Strange days indeed, most peculiar, mama.

Everybody's smoking and no one's getting high, everybody's flying and never touch the sky.
There's a UFO over New York and I ain't too surprised.
Nobody told me there'd be days like these. Nobody told me there'd be days like these.
Nobody told me there'd be days like these. Strange days indeed, most peculiar, mama, whoa.


#9 Dream

So long ago, was it in a dream, was it just a dream?
I know, yes I know, seemed so very real, it seemed so real to me.
Took a walk down the street through the heat whispered trees,
I thought I could hear, hear, hear, hear.
Somebody call out my name as it started to rain, two spirits dancing so strange.
Ah, bawakawa pousse', pousse', ah, bawakawa pousse' pousse', ah, bawakawa pousse' pousse'.

Dream, dream away. Magic in the air, was magic in the air?
I believe, yes I believe. More I cannot say, what more can I say?
On a river of sound through the mirror go round, round.
I thought I could feel (feel, feel, feel).
Music touching my soul, something warm, sudden cold, the spirit dance was unfolding.
Ah, bawakawa pousse', pousse', ah, bawakawa pousse' pousse', ah, bawakawa pousse' pousse'.
Ah, bawakawa pousse', pousse', ah, bawakawa pousse' pousse', ah, bawakawa pousse' pousse'.
Ah, bawakawa pousse', pousse', ah, bawakawa pousse' pousse', ah, bawakawa pousse' pousse'.


Oh, My Love

Oh, my love for the first time in my life, my eyes are wide open.
Oh, my lover for the first time in my life, my eyes can see.
I see the wind, I see the trees, everything is clear in my heart.
I see the clouds, I see the sky, everything is clear in our world.

Oh, my love for the first time in my life, my mind is wide open.
Oh, my lover for the first time in my life, my mind can feel.
I feel the sorrow, oh I feel the dreams, everything is clear in my heart.
I feel life, oh I feel love, everything is clear in our world.


Oh Yoko!

In the middle of the night, in the middle of the night I call your name,
Oh Yoko, oh Yoko, my love will turn you on.
In the middle of the bath, in the middle of the bath I call your name,
Oh Yoko, oh Yoko, my love will turn you on. My love will turn you on.

In the middle of a shave, in the middle of a shave I call your name.
Oh Yoko, oh Yoko, my love will turn you on.
In the middle of a dream, in the middle of a dream I call your name.
Oh Yoko, oh Yoko, my love will turn you on. My love will turn you on

In the middle of a cloud In the middle of a cloud I call your name
Oh Yoko, oh Yoko, my love will turn you on Oh Yoko, oh Yoko, oh Yoko, oh Yoko...


Power To The People

Power to the people, power to the people, power to the people, power to the people.
Power to the people, power to the people, power to the people, power to the people, right on.
Say you want a revolution, we better get on right away.
Well, you get on your feet and out on the street, singing
power to the people, power to the people, power to the people, power to the people, right on.

A million workers working for nothing, you better give em what they really own.
We got to put you down when we come into town, singing
Power to the people, power to the people, power to the people, power to the people, right on.

I gotta ask you comrades and brothers, how do you treat you own woman back home?
She got to be herself so she can free herself, singing
Power to the people, power to the people, power to the people, power to the people, right on.
Now, now, now, now, oh well, power to the people
power to the people, power to the people, power to the people, right on...


Real Love ("Imagine: John Lennon" Soundtrack version)

All the little girls and boys playing with their little toys,
all they really needed from you was maybe, some love.
All the little boys and girls living in this crazy world,
All they really needed from you was maybe, some love.
Why must we be alone? Why must we be alone? It's real life, yes, it's real.

I don't expect you to understand- the kingdom of Heaven is in your hands.
I don't expect you to wake from the dream, too late for crying, now, that it seems.

All your little plans and schemes, nothing but a bunch of dreams.
All you really need from you is maybe, some love.


Watching the Wheels

People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing.
Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin.
When I say that I'm okay, well, they look at me kind of strange.
Surely you're not happy now, you no longer play the game.

People say I'm lazy, dreaming my life away.
Well, they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me.
When I tell that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall,
"don't you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball?"
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round, I really love to watch them roll.
No longer riding on the merry-go-round, I just had to let it go.

People asking questions. lost in confusion. Well. I tell them there's no problem, only solutions.
Well, they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind,
I tell them there's no hurry, I'm just sitting here doing time.
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round, I really love to watch them roll.
No longer riding on the merry-go-round, I just had to let it go.
I just had to let it go. I just had to let it go.


Whatever Gets You Through The Night

Whatever gets you through the night, 'salright, 'salright. It's your money or life 'salright, 'salright.
Don't need a sword to cut through flowers oh no, oh no.
Whatever gets you through your life, 'salright, 'salright.
Do it wrong or do it right 'salright, 'salright.
Don't need a watch to waste your time oh no, oh no.

Woman

Woman, I can hardly express my mixed emotions and my thoughtlessness.
After all I'm forever in your debt,
and woman, I will try express my inner feelings and thankfulness
for showing me the meaning of success.
Ooh well, well, do do do do. Ooh well, well, do do do do.

Woman, I know you understand the little child inside the man,
please remember my life is in your hands.
And woman, hold me close to your heart, however distant, don't keep us apart.
After all it is written in the stars.  Ooh well, well, do do do do. Ooh well, well, do do do do.

Woman, please let me explain, I never meant to cause you sorrow or pain,
so let me tell you again and again and again,
I love you, yeah, yeah, now and forever, I love you, yeah, yeah, now and forever,
I love you, yeah, yeah, now and forever, I love you, yeah, yeah, now and forever...


Working Class Hero

As soon as you're born they make you feel small by giving you no time instead of it all
till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all.
A working class hero is something to be, a working class hero is something to be.

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school.
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules.
A working class hero is something to be, a working class hero is something to be.

When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years,
then they expect you to pick a career when you can't really function, you're so full of fear.
A working class hero is something to be, a working class hero is something to be.

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
and you think you're so clever and classless and free
but you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see.
A working class hero is something to be, a working class hero is something to be.

There's room at the top, they are telling you still but first you must learn how to smile as you kill
if you want to be like the folks on the hill.
A working class hero is something to be, a working class hero is something to be.
If you want to be a hero well just follow me.  If you want to be a hero well just follow me.


Yes, I'm Your Angel (Lennon/Ono)

Yes, I'm your angel, I'll give you everything in my magic power,
so make a wish, and I'll let it come true for you, tra, la, la, la.

Yes, you're my fairy, you give me everything I every wanted from life,
have I made a wish and is that why I have you? Tra, la, la, la.

We believe in pumpkins that turn into princesses, and frogs that turn into princes.
We believe in moons that smile to us when we hurry home before midnight strikes, tra, la, la, la.

Yes I'm so pretty, you're so dizzy, and we're so happy every day.
Let's make a wish, and let it come true for us. Tra, la, la, la.

I'm in your pocket, you're in my locket, and we're so lucky in every way,
we'll make a wish and let it come true for us, tra, la, la, la.

We believe in houses built in the sky and love that lifts us high.
We believe in sun that looks over our shoulders and brings our shadows together, tra, la, la, la.

Yes, our hearts are one, our bodies, too, and it's so good every time,
we make a wish, and let it come true for you, too, tra, la, la, la.

Happy birthday, my love, I'm your angel, I'll give you everything in my magic power,
so make a wish, and I'll let it come true for you. Tra, la, la, la...


You Are Here

From Liverpool to Tokyo, what a way to go.
From distant lands one woman one man, let the four winds blow.

Three thousand miles over the ocean, three thousand light years from the land of the rising sun.
Love has opened up my eyes, love has blown right through.
Wherever you are, you are here.  Wherever you are, you are here

Three thousand miles over the ocean, three thousand light years from the land of the rising sun.

Well, now east is east and west is west, the twain shall meet.
East is west and west is east, let it be complete.

Three thousand miles over the ocean, three thousand light years from the land of the rising sun.
