Lyrics Gimme Some Truth - Evolution Documentary / Mono - John Lennon feat. The Plastic Ono Band

Okay, take one

Okay, what are we waiting for?
We're waiting - I don't know, what are we waiting for? Let's go
Okay, one, two, one, two, three, four

All I want is the truth
Just give me some truth
No short-haired, yellow - sorry, sorry, stop, stop!
Somebody goofed a chord there
Come on, we should get going
Oh, I'm sorry, well, you've still got it
Come on, I'm doing Eddie Cochran, it doesn't last long
"Cut across, Shorty, Shorty, cut across"
Okay

All I want is the truth
Just give me some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Trick - come on, you cunts!
I hope you're getting the delicacies of recording over there
This is how John does his love songs
"Come on, you fuckers, get it fucking together or I'll fucking cripple you
Skin of a fucking liar, fucking mantra"
All I want is me tooth
All right, this is, can I have a - something's wrong, where's Eddie Veal?

Eddie Veal!
He's on the floor, eh
Get him up, or we'll have veal fucking stroganoff
Oh, there he is, Eddie veal cutlet, come on in, say hello to the camera
Hi camera, hi ma'am
What can you do to mess up the camera, now that you've messed up the studio?
I always whisper to them (it's very nice to be here!)
This is it, John

(Pig-headed politicians)
All I want is the truth, now
Just give me some truth

No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is going to Mother Hubbard soft soap me
For just a pocketful of hope
Money for dope
Money for rope

All right?
Give a listen to it
Jolly decent of you
We're going
It's powerful and sure, watch the tempo, it's starting to pick up
One, two, one, two, three, four

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

I've had enough of reading things
By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth
Just give me some truth

No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is going to Mother Hubbard soft soap me
For just a pocketful of hope
Money for dope
Money for rope
Woo-hoo!

No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is going to Mother Hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of soap
Money for dope
Money for rope

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

All I want is the truth
Just give me some truth
All I want is the truth
Just give me some truth
All I want is the truth
Just give me some truth
Ah, this is the truth!
