Mother

Mother, you had me I never had you I wanted you but you didn't want me So I got to tell you Goodbye, goodbye Father, you left me but I never left you I needed you but you didn't need me So I just got to tell you Goodbye, goodbye Children, don't do what I have done I couldn't walk so I tried to run So I got to tell you Goodbye, goodbye Mama, don't go Daddy, come home |

Hold on John, John hold on It's gonna be alright You gonna win the fight Hold on Yoko, Yoko hold on It's gonna be alright You gonna make the flight When you're by yourself And there's no-one else You just have yourself And you tell yourself to hold on Hold on world, world hold on It's gonna be alright You gonna see the light When you're one really one You get things done Like they've never been done So hold on |

I Found Out
|
|
I told you before, stay away from my door Don't give me that brother, brother, brother, brother No! I found out! Now that I showed you what I've been through Don't take nobody's word what you can do There ain't no Jesus don't come from the sky Now that I found out I know I can cry I found out! Some of you sitting there with your cock in your hand Don't get you nowhere don't make you a man I heard something about my ma and my pa They didn't want me so they made me a star I found out! Old Hare Krishna got nothing on you Just keep you crazy with nothing to do Keep you occupied with pie in the sky There ain't no guru who can see through your eyes I found out! I seen the junkies I've been through it all I've seen religions from Jesus to Paul Don't let them fool you with dope and cocaine No one can harm you, feel your own pain I found out! |

Working Class Hero
|
|
As soon as your 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 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 20 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 religon, sex and T.V. And you think you're so clever and classless and free But you're still fucking peasents 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 |

Isolation
|
|
People say we got it made don't they know we're so afriad Isolation We're afraid to be alone, everbody got to have a home Isolation Just a boy and a little girl trying to change the whole wide world Isolation All the world is a little town, everybody trying to put us down Isolation I don't expect you to understand After you caused so much pain But then again you're not to blame You're just a human, a victim of the insane We're afraid of everyone, afraid of the sun Isolation The sun will never disappear, but the world my not have many years Isolation |

Remember
|
|
Remember when you were young How the hero was never hung Always got away Remember the man Used to leave you empty handed Always, always let you down If you ever change your mind About leaving it all behind Remember, remember today Don't feel sorry About the way it's gone Don't you worry About what you've done Just remember When you were small How people seemed so tall Always had their way Do you remember your ma and pa Just wishing for movie stardom Always, always playing a part If you ever feel sad And the whole world is driving you mad Remember, remember today Don't feel sorry About the way it's gone Don't you worry About what you've done Remember, remember the fifth of November |

Well Well Well
|
|
Well well well, oh well Well well well, oh well I took my loved one out to dinner So we could get a bite to eat And though we both had been much thinner She looked so beautiful I could eat her Well well well, oh well I took my loved one to a big field So we could watch the English sky We both were nervous, feeling guilty And neither one of us knew just why Well well well, oh well We sat and talked of revolution Just like two liberals in the sun We talked of womens liberation And how the hell we could get things done Well well well, oh well I took my loved one to a big field So we could catch the English sky We both were nervous feeling guilty And neither one of us knew just why Well, well, well, oh well |

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... and that 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'll just have to carry on The Dream is over |
