Gimme Some Truth Songtext
von John Lennon

I′m sick and tired of hearin' things
From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded, hypocritics
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth

I′ve had enough of readin' things
By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth

No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
Money for dope
Money for rope

Woo-oo-hoo

No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of soap
Money for dope
Money for rope


I'm sick to death of seein′ things
From tight-lipped, condescendin′, mama's little chauvinists
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth now

I′ve had enough of watchin' scenes
Of schizophrenic, egocentric, paranoiac prima donnas
All I want is the truth now, now
Just gimme some truth

No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of soap
It′s money for dope
Money for rope

Ah, I'm sick to death of hearin′ things
From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded, hypocrites
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now

I've had enough of readin' things
By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now


All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth
All I want is the truth
