GOD - John lennon

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 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 DREAMWEAVER
BUT NOW I'M REBORN
I WAS THE WALRUS

BUT NOW I'M JOHN
AND SO DEAR FRIENDS
YOU JUST HAVE TO CARRY ON
THE DREAM IS OVER

Instant Karma - John lennon

Instant Karma's gonna get you
Gonna knock you right in the head
You better get yourself together
Pretty soon your gonna be dead

What in the world you thinking of?
Laughing in the face of love
What on Earth you try'na do?
It's up to you
Yeah, you

Instant Karma's gonna get you
Gonna hit you right in the face
You better get yourself together darling
Join the human race

How in the world you gonna see?
Laughing at fools like me
Who on Earth d'you think you are?
A superstar?
Well, right you are

And we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well, we all shine on
Everyone, c'mon

Instant Karma's gonna get you
Gonna knock you off your feet
Better recognise 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
Gonna get your share

Well, we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Yeah, we all shine on
C'mon and on and on, on, on
