John Lennon (2009 Musical Comedy Awards Version) Lyrics by Jay Foreman

Musical Comedy Awards 2009 Final Best Newcomer Set

2009

What if John Lennon were still alive today
And he had not been shot?
The general consensus is that that would be nice
But I dare to say that it might not
He'd hang around with Barno doing Live Aid and the like
Oh, I'm glad John Lennon died
Now before you start to boo me and say that I'm a cunt
Perhaps I should explain
He last wrote a good song in 1971
And he never sang a decent one again
His music in the 80s would have sounded like Crowded House
Oh, I'm glad John Lennon died
By the way I wonder
Did you ever stop to think about
Whatever would have happened to McCartney?
Everyone would still be saying "Paul is dead"
And they would have named the airport after him instead
In 1990 Yoko would have killed him anyway
Oh, I'm glad John Lennon died
(whistling)
Imagine if he instead of Neil Buchanan presented Art Attack
Oh, I'm glad John Lennon died
Thank you!
