Imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try
No people below us, above it's only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no countries, it isn't hard to do
No need to kill or die for and no religions too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
[ From: IMAGINE Lyrics - JOHN LENNON ]
Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger a brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing for the world
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
Take my hand and join us
And the world will live, will live as one
No people below us, above it's only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no countries, it isn't hard to do
No need to kill or die for and no religions too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

And the world will live as one
You may say I'm a dreamer

Take my hand and join us
And the world will live, will live as one
I find it very hard to imagine that this green jello guy got a music contract in the first place!

If he objected to the lyrics then he should have simply picked another song.

Got it wrong the first time.
Imagine there's no heaven
it's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

Cee Lo, call your attorney.
According to Yoko Ono, who controls the rights to John Lennon's music, the most frequent request she gets comes from musicians who want to record this song but change the "No religion, too" lyrics - a request she has always denied.
So, does this mean you can record any song, but you need special permission to alter the lyrics? Essentially, yes. Alex Holz at the music licensing and royalty service provider Limelight explained to us: "Artists can be afforded 'some' leeway in adapting a track to your band's style (so long as you don't alter the fundamental character of the work), though lyric changes/alterations typically require direct permission from the publisher as a derivative work. Every songwriter/publisher/song is unique and requirements vary."

Dude could have banged any broad he wanted...
Why the hell did he pick yoko...
She kinda looks like a cross between Michale Jackson and a Mummy...
And couldn't she have afforded some conditioner or better shampoo...

Funny thing is, if his tweet is true, I bet he was saying exactly what Lennon meant in the first place; "Believe what you want."

No doubt. I liked his work in the Beatles, but I can't stand the waily ass shit that came afterward.
The other beatles wondered also.
Really? Even these?

Almost said that exact thing, but then wondered. Was Lennon an atheist? Google offered this:
Lennon read widely on religion, in the 1960s he described himself as atheist; quite a thing to do in 1960s America! Somewhat contrary to this, he strongly believed in "fate"; he thought he'd been fated to be a Beatle. Very successful people often seem to have this kind of belief; simply not believing their luck!
Later in life he implied a belief in God, the "constant" in his belief was a dislike for organised religions - he felt that religions shut out each others beliefs.
He referred to himself later in life as a "very spiritual person." In his song, "Out the Blue," he thanked the "Lord and Lady" for Yoko. It's been implied that John and Yoko raised Sean with Zen Buddhist concepts.

because it's boring, trite and not true.
