OKAY YOKO JON ISHERWOOD

Lennons so clever
In all kinds of weather
Writer of the highest degree
So I decided the best thing to do
Was to go and see The Maharishi

But abiding my time
When the Beatles came back with the new philosophy
And said that the guru
"How nice to know you!"
Wasn't that a cup of tea,
Oh No...
Wasn't that a cup of tea

So, its Okay Yoko do it your way
In a bag lying down on the floor
I can’t see you
Let alone hear you
So how you gonna end the war?
Are you getting anywhere
Cutting off yer hair,
And have you got a message for me?
And it takes a long time for a little acorn
To grow into a big Oak Tree
Oh Yes..
Grow into a big oak tree

In the national press
We were told to undress
In the interest of peace
Said the lady next door
Washing her floor
"One thing I know at least
Well they've got a cheak
In bed for a week
And it looks like they're deceased."
And her religious fervour
Seemed to disturb her
And she phoned up for a priest
Oh Yes..
Phoned up for a priest.

Chorus

Now Lennon got a bit of wood
And said that everybody should
Knock a nail in every day.
So I had a go at it and all I got
Was a hospital holiday
He got away with it by knocking in the nail
While the sunshine makes some hay
And my mental state
Aint increased of late
And they've come to put me away
Hey hey Come to put me away!

Chorus
