How Do You Sleep? Lyrics
Artist(Band):John Lennon
Review The Song (46)Print the Lyrics
So Sgt. Pepper took you by surprise
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?

Review about How Do You Sleep?

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...



Paul is embarassing | Reviewer: Voodoo GodZ | 4/17/09

Everything abut the Beatles was good - except the embarrassing stupid dull Paul McCartney lyrics. Rocky racoon, Honey Pie etc. - that´s so awfully dumb I can´t listen to that crap. How can any one write this and still want to be seen as a genius?



Nobody else can see? | Reviewer: Julian Molina | 12/12/08

The demand of John was about the deep meaning of the artistic project, what was realy important to tell to the world, to the human being, then and forever. The art is an important vehicle to all kinds of values. Paul is shurely the greatest musician who ever existed, but he can't see the meaning of within. Lennon, in the other hand, could have never existed without Paul. That is what makes The Beatles something greatfull, irrepetible. How could so differente and contradictory people work toghether?



truth | Reviewer: simon | 11/18/08

the truth is i wrote all of john and ringos songs, and then whispered them into their ears when they were sleeping. I was asking john how could he sleep with all the noise and he wrote this the next day.



The Walrus was George! | Reviewer: David | 6/23/08

Both Paul & John are very deeply inspired musicians & writers. I love them both. On thee other hand they both were pretty unheroic when it came to putting songs from George Harrison onto Albums. "It's Only A Northern Song" was originally intended to be on Sgt.Peppers. Nevertheless Sgt.Pepper & Magical Mystery Tour which were landmarks of psychedelic music would of never happened without the vision & rigor of Paul McCartney and can hardly be called "Muzak". Like many artists in the 70's who were traumatized by the sunken ship of freedom's revolution, both Paul & John resumed to more subliminal approaches.
Neither of the two remained as bold as e.g. David Bowie, who openley asked "Is There Life On Mars" (See those Cavemen Go...)

Here's an example for a guy who has "nothing to say" from the album Memory Almost Full:


Lightning hits the house of wax
Poets spill out on the street
To set alight the incomplete
Remainders of the future

Hidden in the yard. Hidden in the yard.

Thunder drowns the trumpets blast
Poets scatter through the night
But they can only dream of flight
Away from their confusion

Hidden in the yard. Undemeath the wall
Buried deep below a thousand layers lay
The answer to it all

Lightning hits the house of wax
Woman scream and run around
To dance upon the battleground
Like wild demented horses

Hidden in the yard. Undemeath the wall
Buried deep below a thousand layers lay
The answer to it all



Macca was The Beatles' main sound man... | Reviewer: Rick | 6/23/08

History has shown Macca to be the most prolific songwriter with more hits. Lennon was more of a message song poet than a melodic tunesmith.

John wanted to save the world with righteous anthems, Paul gave it more ear candy to fight the cynicism. Humanity is not perfect. But music can be.
