Imagine
Here we are again…
Twenty-nine years ago today, some piece of shit shot a man who was on his way home. As is usually the case, the piece of shit was insignificant and the the victim was beloved by millions. Fortunately, John Lennon’s work is still with us to enjoy. So take a moment to sit back, listen to “I’m So Tired”, “In My Life”, “Working Class Hero”, or one of the other many classics given to us by one of the greatest songwriters of all time.
And as cliché as this may be, maybe take a moment to let these words sink in.
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
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 may say that 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
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You may say that I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one

i’m sick and tired of hearing things
from uptight-short sighted-narrow minded hypocritics
all i want is the truth
just give me some truth
i’ve had enough of reading things
by nuerotic-pyschotic-pig headed politicians
all i want is the truth
just give me some truth
no short haired-yellow bellied
son of tricky dicky
is gonna mother hubbard
soft soap me
with just a pocketful of hope
money for dope
money for rope
i’m sick to death of seeing things
from tight lipped-condescending-mommies
little chauvinists
all i want is the truth
just give me some truth
i’ve had enough of watching scenes
of schizophrenic ego-centric-paranoic primadonnas
all i want is the truth
just give me some truth
