Imagine
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 religon too
imagine all the people
living life in peace...
imagine no possesions
iwonder if you can
no need for greed or hunger
in a brotherhood of man
imagine all the people
sharing all the world...
you may say i'm a dreamer
but i'm not the only one
i hope some day you'll join us
and the world will be as one

crippled inside
you can shine you're shoes
and wear a suit
you can comb your hair
and look quite cute
you can hide your face
behind a smile
one thing you can't hide
is when you're crippled inside
you wear a mask
and paint your face
you can call yourself
the human race
you can wear a collar
and a tie
but the one thing you
can't hide is when you're
crippled inside
well now you know that your
cat has nine lives babe
nine loves to itself
but you only got one
and a dog life ain't no fun
mamma take a look outside.
you can go to church
and sing a hymn
judge me by the color
of my skin
you can live a lie until you die
one thing you can't hide
is when you're crippled inside.

jealous guy
i was dreaming of a past
and my heart was beating fast
i began to lose control
i began to lose control
i didn't mean to hurt
i'm sorry that i made you cry
i didn't mean to hurt you
i'm just a jealous guy
i was feeling inscure
you might not love me anymore
i was shivering inside
i was shivering inside
i was trying to catch your eyes

hide
i was swallowing my pain
i was swallowing my pain

it's so hard
you got to live
you got to love you got to be
somebody you got to shove
but it's so hard, it's really hard
sometimes i feel like going
down
you got to eat
you got to drink
you got to feel something
you got to worry
it's so hard, it's really hard
sometimes i feel like going
down
but when it's good it's oh so
good
and when i hold you in
arms baby
sometimes i feel like going
down
you got to run
you got to hide
you got to keep your woman
satisfied
but it's so hard, it's really hard
sometimes i feel like going
down

i'm sick and tired of hearing
things
from uptight-short sighted-
narrow minded hypocritics

pig headed politicians

with just a pocketful of hope
money for dope
money for rope
i'm sick to death of seeing

from tight lipped-
condescending -mommies little
chauvinists

just give me some truth
i've had enough of watching
scenes
of schizophrenic - ego - centric
- paranoic - prima - donnas
all i want is the truth
just give me some truth

you you was king
jum when your mamma tell

yesterday
and since you've gone it's just
another day
how do you sleep?
ah how do you sleep at night?
a pretty face may last a year

but pretty soon they'll see
what you can do
