I STARTED A JOKE
I started a joke, which started the whole world crying,
But I didn't see that the joke was on me, oh no.

I started to cry, which started the whole world laughing,
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.

I looked at the skies, running my hands over my eyes,
And I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I'd said.

Til I finally died, which started thewhole world living,
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.

I looked at the skies, running my hands over my eyes,
And I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I'd said.

Til I finally died, which started the whole world living,
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was one me.

IMAGINE
Imagine there's no Heaven 
It's easy if you try 
And no Hell below us 
Above us onlysky 

Imagine all the people 
Living for today 
Imagine there's no country 
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 will join us 
And the world will be as one 

Imagine no posessions 
I wonder if you can 
No need for greed or hunger Or Brotherhood of Man 

Imagine all the people 
Sharing all the world 
You may say that I'm a dreamer 
But I'm not the only one 

I hope someday you will join us 
And the world will be as one

WOMAN
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 
Forshowing 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 of 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 
LEMON TREE
I'm sitting here in a boring room
it's just another rainysunday afternoon
i'm wasting my time, i got nothing to do
i'm hanging around, i'm waiting for you
but nothing ever happens, and i wonder
I'm driving around in my car
i'm driving too fast, i'm driving too far
i'd like to change my point of view
i feel so lonely, i'm waiting for you
but nothing ever happens, and i wonder
I wonder how, i wonder why
yesterday you told me 'bout theblue blue sky
and all that i can see is just a yellow lemon tree
i'm turning my head up and down
i'm turning, turning, turning, turning, turning around
and all that i can see is just another lemon tree
Sing! da, da da dee da, etc.
I'm sitting here, i miss the power
i'd like to go out taking a shower
but there's a heavy cloud inside my head
i feel so tired, put myself into bedwhere nothing ever happens, and i wonder
Isolation, is not good for me
isolation, i don't want to sit on a lemon tree
i'm stepping around in a desert of joy
baby anyhow i'll get another toy
and everything will happen, and you'll wonder

YESTERDAY

Yesterday,
All my troubles seemed so far away,
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh I believe in yesterday

Suddenly,I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh yesterday came suddenly

Why she had to go
I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong
now I'm long for yesterday

Yesterday,
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe in yesterday

Why she had to go
I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong...
