Song | I Won't Be Your Yoko Ono |
Artist | Dar Williams |
Album | Out There Live |
作词 : Williams | |
I wonder if Yoko Ono | |
Ever thought of staying solo | |
If she thought of other men and | |
If she doubted John Lennon | |
Worrying that he'd distract her art | |
Sitting in the Apple sessions | |
Giving John her music lessons | |
Challenging the warring nations | |
With her paper installations | |
Did she guard her Yoko human heart | |
Well, they could talk about me | |
Yeah, they could talk about me | |
Throw me to the velvet dogs of pop star history | |
But I won't be your Yoko Ono | |
If you're not good enough for me | |
Some will give their love for fashion | |
Others trade their gold for passion | |
I don't have the goods to start with | |
Never had the reins to part with | |
Still, I hope you take me seriously | |
'Cause I think I could go | |
Deep as the sea of Yoko | |
You don't know a person like me | |
I could sell your songs to Nike | |
And for all you know | |
I could save your soul | |
As only true love can change your mind | |
Make you leave your screaming fans behind | |
When John called the wind an opera | |
Making love with every chakra | |
When he said her voice would carry | |
And when he whispered old Chuck Berry | |
Only then would Yoko set him free | |
Fame will come and vanish later | |
Transcendental love is greater | |
I think if we had this somehow | |
We'd be feeling famous right now | |
We'd be saying love is all you need | |
And they could rag about me | |
Yeah, they could rag about me | |
Throw me to the velvet dogs of pop star history | |
But I won't be your Yoko Ono | |
If you're not good enough for me | |
Oh, no . . . and I won't be your Yoko Ono | |
If you're not good enough for me . . . . . . |
