The U.S. vs. John Lennon (2006)

YouTube - John Lennon Watching The Wheels

People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing,
Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin,
When I say that I'm o.k. they look at me kind of strange,
Surely your not happy now you no longer play the game,

People say I'm lazy dreaming my life away,
Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me,
When I tell that I'm doing Fine watching shadows on the wall,
Don't you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball?

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round,
I really love to watch them roll,
No longer riding on the merry-go-round,
I just had to let it go,

People asking questions lost in confusion,
Well I tell them there's no problem,
Only solutions,
Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind,
I tell them there's no hurry...
I'm just sitting here doing time,

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round,
I really love to watch them roll,
No longer riding on the merry-go-round,
I just had to let it go.

They Ain't Makin' Jews Like Jesus Anymore Lyrics
(kinky friedman)

Well, a redneck nerd in a bowling shirt was a-guzzlin' lone star beer
Talking religion and-uh politics for all the world to hear.
they oughta send you back to russia, boy, or new york city one
You just want to doodle a christian girl and you killed god's only son.

I said, has it occurred to you, you nerd, that that's not very nice,
We jews believe it was santa claus that killed jesus christ.
you know, you don't look jewish, he said, near as I could figger
I had you lamped for a slightly anemic, well-dressed country nigger.

No, they ain't makin' jews like jesus anymore,
They don't turn the other cheek the way they done before.
He started in to shoutin' and a-spittin' on the floor,
lord, they ain't makin' jews like jesus anymore.

He says, i ain't a racist but aristitle onassis is one greek we don't need
And them niggers, jews and sigma nus, all they ever do is breed.
And wops n micks n slopes n spics n spooks are on my list
And there's one little hebe from the heart of texas; is there anyone I missed.

Well, I hits him with everything I had right square between the eyes.
I says, i'm gonna gitcha, you son of a bitch ya, for spoutin' that pack of lies.
If there's one thing I can't abide, it's an ethnocentric racist;
Now you take back that thing you said bout aristitle onassis.

No, they ain't makin' jews like jesus anymore,
We don't turn the other cheek the way we done before.
You could hear that honky holler as he hit that hardwood floor
lord, they sho' ain't makin' jews like jesus anymore!
All right!

No, they ain't makin' jews like jesus anymore,
We don't turn the other cheek the way they done before.
You hear that honky holler as he hit that hardwood floor
Lord, they ain't makin' jews like jesus anymore.

Everybody!
They ain't makin' jews like jesus anymore,
They ain't makin' carpenters who know what nails are for.
Well, the whole damn place was singin' as I strolled right out the door
lord, they ain't makin' jews like jesus anymore!

No, we ain't makin' jews like jesus anymore,
We don't turn the other cheek the way they done before.
Well, the whole damn place was singin' as I strolled right out the door
lord, they ain't makin' jews like jesus anymore!

John Lennon - FBI FIles
The FBI assembled around 300 pages of files on John Lennon in 1971-72, part of President Nixon's effort to deport Lennon to silence him as a critic of the Vietnam war...

I believe in God, but not as one thing, not as an old man in the sky. I believe that what people call God is something in all of us. I believe that what Jesus and Mohammed and Buddha and all the rest said was right. It's just that the translations have gone wrong.---John Lennon

Hey, intangible, there are two kinds of kooks: the rich are eccentric and the poor are weird/crazy. Nice to meet you, from one crazy to another. Keep on truckin' and writing.....

Someday I am going to tell you about the Puerto Rican independence fighter who may (or may not) have been used in a radiation experiment in jail..... It is known that the US government has experimented on Americans without their knowledge. One infamous case was about poor black men years ago with syphilis who they DENIED treatment to see what would happen..... Dumb and scary, huh? The FBI and Hoover kept tons of files....they even have the dirty on Martin Luther King JR....such as cheating (oh my)....and called him a commie..... To think that intangible and me actually care and can't do anything about it......

I disagree, there are three kinds of people!

Those who watch things happen
Those who make things happen
Those who wander, what happened?

I am talking about kooks and you are talking about things happening.....we are both right. LOL

Where do you get all these links from intanigble? I never see you do anything but post links. You must spend a lot of time trying to find these things.

Nobody knows what others do off the internet......and I personally probably do not want to know..... Intangible is a well read highly intelligent person, whether you agree with him or not. He(?) is also sensitive.....though that may not be as great a gift...... I am an independent thinker......and too bad the religious right and almost pure capitalists have the Republicans..... The rest of us have to live, and we are stuck with the Democrats.... LOL
