John Lennon Watching The Wheels
People say I'm crazy, doing what I'm doing. Well, they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin. When I say that I'm okay, well, they look at me kinda strange. "Surely, your not happy now, you no longer play the game." People say I'm lazy, dreaming my life away. Well, they give me all kinda of advice designed to enlighten me. When I tell them that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall. "Don't you miss the big time, boy. You're no longer on the ball." 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. Ahhh...People ask me 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 marry-go-round. I just had to let it go. I just had to let it go. I just had to let it goooooo.
