John Lennon

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

I’m just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go


I used to sing that song in a lounge. I meant it at the time.

Lennon’s circulatory system was ruptured by four 38-caliber hollow point bullets, entering through the back. He lost 80% of his blood and died. Mark Chapman pulled the trigger, he was a Beatles fan. Chapman was denied bail for the fifth time last month.
