Imagine

Lyrics

[Intro: The Long March, Smiley] Imagine the world we live in Imagine the world we live in Yeah, check it [Chorus: Smiley] Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves And the worth of boys and girls wasn't measured by their wealth Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves And we showed good will when another needed help Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves And put needs over wants for once up in this Hell Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine if this world imagined as well [Verse 1: Smiley] Imagine if we took responsibility for our actions Stop the military from the kills, [?] factions I see a world without boundary or border I see a world full of scoundrels and slaughter Seems we need someone else tellin' us what to do Tellin' us somethin' new that's elegant and improved Nothin' relevant on the news, so I surf through the system But if it ain't the Simpsons, it's probably worth skippin' If it is, I get some beers and pizza on my visa Recline to my million dollar million man seater But don't be askin' me for a cigarette or dollar Can't you see? I'm in debt, only credit in my wallet I met a man once upon a time they call [?] [?] visit any time he wanna Seems we're all gonners, Grim Reaper's creepin' on us Scared of our mistakes and we follow him for solace [Bridge: The Long March] Imagine where a hand to help was given out for free And nobody's about "What's in it for me?" What's found beneath this [?] Imagine the world we live in [Chorus: Smiley] Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves And the worth of boys and girls wasn't measured by their wealth Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves And we showed good will when another needed help Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves And put needs over wants for once up in this Hell Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine if this world imagined as well [Verse 2: Smiley] But I, wrap myself in cotton wool plain thread And follow to the letter or the laws they set I hate call or text, and MySpace is dead Are Facebook and Twitter all my mates instead? Got the World Wide Web at the flick of a fingertip Digital set, DVD billed into it My profile pic shows my individuality And prime time's there if I need to see reality It's the world we live in, living celibate, out of touch And then wonder why it is terrorists are hatin' us I hate to make a fuss, but the world is breakin' up Think we got a bad connection, communicate stuffed Signs ain't enough, bring sirens and cuffs We'll teach these free thinkers for defyin' us Imagine if we had the nerve to try somethin' else Look past what we know and start thinkin' for ourselves [Chorus: Smiley] Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves And the worth of boys and girls wasn't measured by their wealth Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves And we showed good will when another needed help Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves And put needs over wants for once up in this Hell Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine if this world imagined as well [Outro: Smiley, The Long March Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine the world we live in Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine the world we live in Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine the world we live in Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine if this world imagined as well Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine the world we live in Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Oh, imagine the world we live in Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine the world we live in Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine if this world imagined as well Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine the world we live in Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Oh, imagine the world we live in Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine the world we live in Imagine if the world started thinkin' for themselves Imagine if this world imagined as well
