| | How Do You Sleep? Lyrics Artist(Band):John Lennon
You better see right through that mother's eyes Those freaks was right when they said you was dead The one mistake you made was in your head Ah, how do you sleep? Ah, how do you sleep at night? You live with straights who tell you you was king Jump when your momma tell you anything The only thing you done was yesterday And since you're gone you're just another day Ah, how do you sleep? Ah, how do you sleep at night? Ah, how do you sleep? Ah, how do you sleep at night? A pretty face may last a year or two But pretty soon they'll see what you can do The sound you make is muzak to my ears You must have learned something in all those years Ah, how do you sleep? Ah, how do you sleep at night? If you find some error in How Do You Sleep? Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me? Thank You. Review about How Do You Sleep? There's more to the lyric | Reviewer: Ally Mo | 9/27/09 Lennon was talking about something far greater than a falling out. There was a pushing for the beatles split and paul M took the deal. Lennon could not believe that he could swap conscience for fame. Lennon was a true maverick. Who was more important to the Beatles success? IMO, Paul. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/27/09 Scathing song but John certainly didn't believe "Yesterday" was the only good song Paul wrote. He was just angry at the way things ended with Paul outing the breakup when he was in fact the one to make the decision month's prior. John loved many of Paul's songs but he also didn't like wimpy stuff and "Ob La Di" and others were muzak to John's ears. And I won't get into a John was better than Paul or Paul was better than John argument. I honestly don't believe the bands John and Paul would have formed on their own would have been anything more than really good 60's bands. To really be the Beatles, they NEEDED each other but I think John needed Paul's drive and ambition slightly more than Paul needed John's incisive lyrics and melodic structure. Once John found pot and heroin (later), the Beatles would have gone to shit w/o Paul's continued need to work and try to keep the Beatles in the limelight by writing great songs (singles), some with John's help, some without. As someone said, they were yin to each other's yang and without each other, the Beatles would have been two really good bands but not the worldwide phenomenon they've become. And for the George lovers, even George would tell you that his songwriting needed more seasoning than John/Paul even if by the end his contributions may have been the best of the bunch. "Something" and "Here Comes the Sun" are probably the best songs on Abbey Road. The fact that we're here discussing this more than 40 years later should tell us all we need to know about the legacy of the Beatles. john was just pissed | Reviewer: Neel | 9/8/09 it's quite evident that john was just pissed. Paul was a gifted melody maker. john was a character. pity they fell out. cuz of neither their solo efforts even came close to the beatles. and thats proof against any accusations of an artistic void in either of them. paul sucks!!! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/31/09 this song is basically telling you that paul was a nobody, witch is true, without john hes a nobody and john was really the only talented one of the group he wrote all the songs, you might say that pauls songs went #1 and his solos went #1 but we all know john wrote most of the music! when paul went solo his music was pop shit, gay as shit and pussy! im not saying they werent both great with eachother bc they were both great when they were together they were made for eachother, but paul is a peice of shit and his pop music sucks. the only thing he done was yesterday and since hes gone hes just another day! johns cd imagine was better then any of pauls solo cds, paul is crap with john and that shows you right there that paul would have to stand on gods shoulders to kiss johns ass!! all you mccartney fans suck, hes music and lyrics are garbage! Lennon & McCartney - the greatest duo ever | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/25/09 They were great BECAUSE of each other. Yin and yang. Each needed and thrived off the other. Their continued falling out thru the 70's was largely Yoko's fault. She kept him from jamming with Macca during Venus and Mars, and she was the one who said Paul could only 'rhyme June with spoon'. Yes, Paul gets a little corny sometimes, but the world needs a little optimism - just like it also needs John's cynical, critical view. Both of them, the best duo ever, hands down. Paul is deff not lord | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/1/09 Paul did do much better than John musicly after the Beatles. BUT paul put all of his life in time onto it. John didnt at all in fact music was very much on the side. just listen to his song "Watching the Wheels" and John is deff more popular and than paul John and Paul friends | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/26/09 Your all fighting a battle that can never be won John Lennon and Paul McCarntney were both amazing artisits get over it they were also both great friends and had a falling out like people do sometimes but they got over it why can;t you. Their music was different and thats what made the beatles music so amazing the compromise between the two. Imagine | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/13/09 If you ever watch the movie "Imagine" which is a documentary of john and yoko, John says that he thought it was about Paul and then he realized that it was somewhat about himself...he also goes on to say that he and Paul are okay. And in my opinion, both people are equally AMAZING! Just a question | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/5/09 Being more popular makes you a better artist??? Please, tell me how many #1 hits did Pink Floyd have... and please, please, tell me they were not awesome artists... John is a hundred, a thousend times bigger than Paul... Not only as an artist, as a musician, as a composer, but as a person... Greetings from Argentina McCartney is Lord | Reviewer: Joe | 5/26/09 All you idiots that think Lennon was better....look at the numbers...more McCartney Beatle Songs went #1 and more McCartney Solo work went #1...after the beatles Paul had 9 #1 Albums and 7 #1 hit songs...Lennon can't stand up to that...all the best Beatles work was Paul..."Sgt. Pepper" "yesterday" "hey jude"(which lennon admidted to having no involvment in) "Let it be"(widely regarded the greatest song of all time) "Long and winding road" "get back" "can't buy me love" "Hello, Goodbye" "I saw her standing there"....I can go on and on...Paul is The Beatle Warlord...
