by John Lennon
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 king of strange.
Surely, you're not happy now you no longer play the game.
People say i'm lazy, dreaming my life away.
Well they give me all kinds of advice,
designed to enlighten me.
When i tell them that
I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall.
Dont you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball.
Poeple 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.
