Imagine 2005:
to the tune of “Imagine” by John Lennon
1) Imagine there's
no money - Healthcare for you was free
A barterhood of
brothers - No more pov-er-ty
*Imagine being
older *And aging
beautifully!
Imagine no
obsessions - And no obesity
No more toothpick
models - Such starved insanity
*Imagine clothes
don't matter *Or make you
better than me!
You may say it's
impossible
But you haven't even
tried
I hope someday
you'll wake up
And know you must
de-cide!
2) Imagine no
pol-i-tic-ians - Pushy Elephants and Asses
Imagine all of us as
equals - No more trumped-up classes
*Imagine all the
media *Truthful with the
masses!
Imagine a “living”
wage - I wonder if you dare
Imagine slavery a
crime - And Congress really cared
*Imagine every
neighbor *Ready to love
and share!
You may say I'm a
looney
But I'm not a TV
freak
I don't dig those
commercials
With all that
doublespeak!
3) Imagine no more
clutter - Where'd it come from' mystery
Walking in your
kitchen - Of sparse simplicity
*Imagine your teen
helping *And doing it for
free!
Imagine no more
billionaires - Or for-feit-ing our guns
Imagine no more
homeless - A place for everyone
*Imagine that the
o-zone *Is protecting us from
sun!
You may say I'm a
loser
But I'm winning at
the game
I hope someday
you'll get it
And learn to do the
same!
4) Imagine no more
phones calls - From agents you don't know
Imagine this is
banned - For the privacy of home
*Imagine the
Constitution *Where did this
right go?
Imagine time for
family - It's a poss-i-bil-i-ty
If only people
knew - How to work for what they need
*Imagine no more
cutting *Our Civil
Lib-er-ties!
You may say I'm
schemer
But inside you each
agree
That freedom's
disappearing
For false
se-cur-i-ty!
