Or perhaps plain and simply he was just A JEALOUS GUY John hated war and wanted us all to GIVE PEACE A CHANCE Was that murdering bastard on drugs or perhaps in a trance IMAGINE If the whole world held hands, you would have to agree Thats all he ever wanted, he asked us all, PLEASE STAND BY ME His friendship with the Beatles was just STARTING OVER again A HAPPY XMAS coz to George, Paul and Ringo he was a fri But his face certainly became famous, the boy from Liverpool Do you think that John Lennon lived on BORROWED TIME Was his time up when Chapman committed that terrible crime? HOW DO YOU SLEEP Mr Chapman, does it come to you easily?
