John Lennon & The Plastic Ono Band

I'm sick and tired of hearing things
From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocritics
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth
I've had enough of reading things
By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth

No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
Money for dope
Money for rope

No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
Money for dope
Money for rope

I'm sick to death of seeing things
From tight-lipped, condescending, mama's little chauvinists
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth now

I've had enough of watching scenes
Of schizophrenic, ego-centric, paranoiac, prima-donnas
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth

No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
It's money for dope
Money for rope

Ah, I'm sick and tired of hearing things
from uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocrites
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now

I've had enough of reading things
by neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now

All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth

We like to do the last number and go and recover.

One, two, three, four!

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog,
Cryin' all the time;
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog,
Cryin' all the time.
You ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine.

When they said that you was highclassed,
That was just a lie;
When they said that you was highclassed,
That was just a lie.
You ain't never caught no rabbit,
You ain't no friend of mine.

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog,
Cryin' all the time;
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog,
Cryin' all the time.
You ain't never caught no rabbit
You ain't no friend of mine.

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog,
Cryin' all the time;
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog,
Cryin' all the time.
You ain't never caught a rabbit
You ain't no friend of mine.

Well, they said that you was highclassed,
Well, that was just a lie;
Well, they said that you was highclassed, babe,
You know it's a lie.
You ain't never caught no rabbit,
You ain't no friend of mine.

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog,
Cryin' all the time;
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog,
Cryin' all the time.
Elvis, i love you!!
You ain't never caught no rabbit
You ain't no friend of mine

One, two

O'oh, Central Park
O'oh, evening skyline
O'oh, helicopter
O'oh, firecrackers
O'oh, July 4th in New York City

O'oh, trees are laughing
O'oh, windows smiling
O'oh, water shining
O'oh, people rolling
O'oh, July 4th in New York City

I never knew we could be so nice to each other
I never thought we'd be laughing together
I never knew life could be so sweet and simple
I never thought that was possible

O'oh, papers flying
O'oh, dogs are chasing
O'oh, clouds are dreaming
O'oh, people dancing
O'oh, July 4th in New York City

I never knew we could be so kind to each other
I never thought we'd be singing together
I never knew life could be so sweet and simple
I never thought that was possible

O'oh, Central Park
O'oh, evening skyline
O'oh, helicopter
O'oh, firecrackers

O'oh, o'oh, o'oh, o'oh, o'oh
O'oh, o'oh, o'oh, o'oh, o'oh
O'oh, o'oh, o'oh, o'oh, o'oh
O'oh, o'oh, o'oh, o'oh
