Instead of This
I've been thinking about a lovely Beatle
You never were knighted,
But you were only blighted
The songs that bird would've sang
If it weren't for that bang
If he would have chose that, instead of this
Instead of this
Might it have been a bliss?
Instead of this
Some say this we'd miss
But I think I'd roll the dice
And try the whole thing twice
Oh, yes, Instead of this
I've been thinking about 1968
The chosen who were blasted
What if they had lasted?
The lives we'd have saved
If there wasn't a man depraved
If he would have chose that, instead of this
Instead of this
Might it have been a bliss?
Instead of this
Some say this we'd miss
But I think I'd roll the dice
And try the whole thing twice
Oh, yes, Instead of this
I've been thinking about the unlived life
Our deepest of dreams
Never realized it seems
Much more joy to have known
If that flower could have grown
If we would have chose that, instead of this
Instead of this
Might it have been a bliss?
Instead of this
Some say this we'd miss
But I think I'd roll the dice
And try the whole thing twice
Oh, yes, Instead of this
You never were knighted,
But you were only blighted
The songs that bird would've sang
If it weren't for that bang
If he would have chose that, instead of this
Instead of this
Might it have been a bliss?
Instead of this
Some say this we'd miss
But I think I'd roll the dice
And try the whole thing twice
Oh, yes, Instead of this
I've been thinking about 1968
The chosen who were blasted
What if they had lasted?
The lives we'd have saved
If there wasn't a man depraved
If he would have chose that, instead of this
Instead of this
Might it have been a bliss?
Instead of this
Some say this we'd miss
But I think I'd roll the dice
And try the whole thing twice
Oh, yes, Instead of this
I've been thinking about the unlived life
Our deepest of dreams
Never realized it seems
Much more joy to have known
If that flower could have grown
If we would have chose that, instead of this
Instead of this
Might it have been a bliss?
Instead of this
Some say this we'd miss
But I think I'd roll the dice
And try the whole thing twice
Oh, yes, Instead of this
