“Doesn’t have a point of view Knows not where he’s going Isn’t he a bit like you and me? Nowhere man please listen You don’t know what you’re missing Nowhere Man, the world is at your command?” The song, which appears on their milestone 1965 album, Rubber Soul, is one of The Beatles’ first songs to appear to not be about romance. Lennon said of the...
“Ah, people asking questions Lost in confusion Well, I tell them there’s no problem Only solutions Well, they shake their heads and they look at me, as if I’ve lost my mind I tell them there’s no hurry, I’m just sitting here doing time“ The final single to be released from the last album Lennon released while he was alive, seemed to be tragically f...
“Children, don’t do What I have done I couldn’t walk And I tried to run So, I I just got to tell you Goodbye Goodbye” ‘Mother’ is as painfully honest as a songwriter can get with themself. It is the result of Lennon and Ono’s primal therapy — sessions they were undergoing in under 1970, that involved the use of screaming to find solace. The beauty ...

The same thing up there trying to reach God and feeling suicidal.” In addition to ...
“There’s room at the top they are telling you still But first, you must learn how to smile as you kill If you want to be like the folks on the hill A working-classhero is something to be” A fiery diatribe of a song aimed directly at those Lennon resented most: the ruling elite and the bourgeoisie. Lennon himself said it was a revolutionary song, an...
