I Just Shot John Lennon
It was a fearful night of december 8th
He was returning home from the studio late
He had perceptively known that it wouldnt be nice
Because in 1980, he paid the price
John lennon died...
With a smith and wesson 38
John lennons life was no longer a debate
He should have stayed at home
He should have never cared
The man who took his life declared:
He said, i just shot john lennon,
I just shot john lennon
What a sad and sorry and sickening sight
What a sad and sorry and sickening night...

Jackpot is when you win plenty at money
Jail is a place I don't want to go

Me sah June is the sixth mounth of the year

Mi say England is a place that covered in snow
Man we drink the ribeana wi don't no like drink beer
But Jelly fish Jahman mi say them swim in a the sea
Unless you born an bread as a Jamaican
The pirate them a gather round the Jolly Roger

Because, I figured that, because I was a successful man, I was wealthy, I was, you know, seemingly intelligent - even that I am not intelligent enough to ask for help.

On The Death By Murder Of John Lennon
On the death by Murder of John Lennon
Oh John,
How could we know,
That you would be,
So Precious?
A man.
Just a man.
Just to be a man.
Oh John,
The bullet,
Pierced the heart,
Of all but you.
Such a mark,
You've made,
In all of us.

People I'd Like to Speak To - Now!
To Jesus I would ask,
Are you truly the Son of God?
Did you really work those miracles,
Are the Gospels your real Word?
With John Kennedy I'd relax,
Tell a joke, have a beer.
Tell him of the Oswald problem,
See him smile, shed a tear?
I'd sing 'My Way' with Sinatra,
King of cool, big band sound.
I'd ask him of his final hours -
Wih no Brat Pack to be found.
John Lennon mightn't speak to me,
Too intelligent perchance,
When I'd tell him of the world at war
Would he say 'Give peace a chance'?
If I could speak with Hitler,
Confront him killing six million Jews,
Would he be a holocaust denier,
Like David Irving with his crew?
There are many I would speak to now,
But charity begins at home,
So first I'll make up with my wife -
Leave those famous names alone!

"you might remember this better than i do, actually."
Spoken by john lennon to plastic ono elephant's memory band:
"-okay? ...something about a flat top that's all i know...
One, two, aah-one, two, three, four-"

He got joo joo eyeball, he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knees
Got to be a joker 'cause he's so hard to please
(shhhoop- shhhoop- shhhoop- shhhoop-)
He wear no shoeshine, he got walrus gumboot
He got monkey finger, he shoot cola cola
He say i know you, you know me
One thing i can tell you is you got to be free
Come together, right now
Over you (spoken by john to audience: "-just for a change...")
(shhhoop-)
He bag production, he got ono sideboard
He one spinal cracker, he got early walkers
He say hair, belief, under his knees
Hold you in his arms til you can feel his disease
Come together, right now
"over me" (-sung by john in a mock effeminate accent)
-oww! lead solos
He roller coaster, he got early warning
He got muddy water, he want mucho filter
He say one and one and one is three
Got to be good lookin' 'cause he's so hard to see
Come together, right now
Over me...over you...over there...(shhhoop-)
Come together....come together,
Come together, -ahhh, come together, -aayyy!
Spoken by john lennon to audience at madison square garden:
"-thank you, thank you...i nearly got all the words right too!"
"i, uh, i'll hafta stop writin' those daft words, man...

Mrs. Lennon
Mrs. lennon, o' mrs. lennon,
Checking the sky to see if there's no clouds.
There's no clouds,
O' then, i guess it must be alright.
Mrs. lennon, o' mrs. lennon,
Making the tea and watching the sea.
There's no waves,
O' then, i guess it must be alright.
Silver spoon, o' silver spoon,
I lost my silver spoon.
And our children, o' our children,
Did they have to go to war?
Yes, my love, it's okay,
Half the world is always killed you know.
Husband john extended his hand,
Extended his hand to his wife.
And he finds, and suddenly he finds
That he has no hands.
They've lost their bodies!
They've lost their bodies!
Yes, they lost their bodies.
Neither of them, o' neither of them
Never left each other.
Yes, my love, it's okay,
Half the world is always dying you know.

Ch 08 On Rules For Conduct In Life - Maxim 05
The country is adorned by intelligent and the religion by virtuous men. Padshahs stand more in need of the advice of intelligent men than intelligent men of the proximity of padshahs.
If thou wilt listen to advice, padshah,
There is none better in all books than this:
‘Entrust a business to an intelligent man
Although it may not be his occupation.’
There's nothing you can know that isn't known.
