gimme some truth

Singer: john lennon

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

ive 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 soap

money for dope

money for rope

i'm sick to death of seeing things

from tight-lipped

condescending

mamas 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 soap

its 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

ive 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
