There Is No Heaven

Ask our beloved late brother John W. Ono Lennon He would have told you straight: ‘There's No Heaven' People on Earth are lunatic, crazy and flashy They destroy or ravage everything they see They don't believe in brotherhood or unity Yet they dream and aspire to live in paradise For what? Why? That's a farce, a prank, a disguise They should first organize their affairs well on Earth Before thinking or dreaming of going or flying there They want to go to Heaven, but they're afraid of death They want absolute happiness, yet they're freaking unfair Racist, ignorant, superstitious, arrogant and jealous Nobody can prove vere, verbatim et literatim that Heaven exists We can talk, chat, shout, curse, rhyme and sing all we want People are crazy, loud and gaudy. They sing, moan and rant People always imagine or invent things that arouse desire and grandeur Let's start with Peace and Love, and then we'll move up the ladder.
