Love the lyrics of this song. You just go on thinking & John Lennon had a beautiful voice.
It’s very tough on me to choose the best lines, cause every line has a message & every line is a gem.
All of it still happens & will continue to happen.
For instance, ‘Everybody's talking and no one says a word.’
I don’t think anyone could have said it in a more appropriate way. People just go on talking & still don’t say what they must. What a pity!
‘Always something happening and nothing going on
There's always something cooking and nothing in the pot’
This is exactly what is happening now. Right?
‘They're starving back in China so finish what you got’
Yeah strange days indeed! People are starving in so many places, we don't even think about. How can we? We don't know what it's like when you don't get food.
I like the way he says Katmandu & most peculiar mama.
And this part is so very true:
‘There's a place for us in the movies you just gotta lay around’
Smokers must know this for sure…still I don’t understand why do we go on smoking:
‘Everybody's smoking and no one's getting high’
It’s one of my favourite songs. It’s amazing that eventually we learn that there are days just like these & we get used to it. Amusing, is it?
