Power to the People
(music - W. Szadkowski & M. Gil; lyrics - J. Lennon)
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on
Say you want a revolution
We better get on right away
Well you get on your feet
And out on the street
Singing power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on
A million workers working for nothing
You better give ‘em what they really own
We got to put you down
When we come into town
Singing power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on
Tomorrow Never Knows
(music - M. Gil; lyrics - J. Lennon & P. Mc Cartney)
Turn off your mind, relax and float downstream
Then it's not dying
Then it's not dying
Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void
And it is shining
It is shining
Now you may see the meaning of within
It is being
It is being
Love is all
Love is everyone
And it is knowing
It is knowing
Listen to the color of your dreams
It is believing,
It is believing
Oh play the game, existence to the end
Of the beginning
Of the beginning
Woman
(music - M. Gil; lyrics - J. Lennon)
Woman I can hardly express
My mixed emotions at my thoughtlessness
After all I'm forever in your debt
And woman I will try to express
My inner feelings and thankfulness
For showing me the meaning of success
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Woman I know you understand
The little child inside the man
Please remember my life is in your hands
And woman hold me close to your heart
However distant don't keep us apart
After all it is written in the stars
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Well
Woman please let me explain
I never meant to cause you sorrow or pain
So let me tell you again and again and again
I love you, yeah, yeah
Now and forever
I love you, yeah, yeah
Now and forever
I love you, yeah, yeah
Now and forever
I love you, yeah, yeah
God
(music - K. Palczewski & Z. Bieniak; lyrics - J. Lennon*)
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 Jesus
I don't believe in tarot
I don't believe in Bible
I don't believe in Buddha
I don't believe in politics
I don't believe in Elvis
I don't believe in Krishna
I don't believe in I-ching
I don't believe in Hitler
I don't believe in Beatles
I don't believe in majesties
I don't believe in anyone
Anyone!
I only believe in me
You and me
And that's reality

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 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 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
Two, one two three four
Ev'rybody's talking about
Ev'rybody's talking about
Ev'rybody's talking about
Ev'rybody's talking about
Madism, Shagism,
Bagism, Dragism,
Madism, Shagism,
This-ism, it-ism.
I-S-M, I-S-M
one, two
one, two, three, four
All we are saying
Is give peace a chance
All we are saying
Is give peace a chance
All we are...
It's been a long time
It's been a long time
It's been a long lonely
Lonely, lonely, lonely...
Time
* The original lyrics have been changed.
There is a place
Where I can go
When I feel low
When I feel blue
And it's my mind
And there's no time
When I'm alone
I think of you
And things you do
Go 'round my head
The things you said
Like "I love only you"
In my mind there's no sorrow
Don't you know that it's so
There'll be no sad tomorrow
Don't you know that it's so
There is a place
Where I can go
When I feel low
When I feel blue
And it's my mind
And there's no time
When I'm alone
Cold Turkey
(music - W. Szadkowski & M. Gil; lyrics - J. Lennon)
Temperature’s rising
Fever is high
Can’t see no future
Can’t see no sky
My feet are so heavy
So is my head
I wish I was a baby
I wish I was dead
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run
My body is aching
Goose-pimple bone
Can’t see nobody
Leave me alone
My eyes are wide open
Can’t get to sleep
One thing I’m sure of
I’m in at the deep freeze
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Thirty-six hours
Rolling in pain
Praying to someone
Free me again
Oh I’ll be a good boy
Please make me well
I promise you anything
Get me out of this hell
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run
On the run
On the run
On the run
Oh, oh, oh, oh
