Lyrics

[Verse 1]
God is a concept
By which we measure our pain
I'll say it again
God is a concept
By which we measure our pain, yeah
Pain, yeah
[Verse 2]
I don't believe in Magic
I don't believe in I-Ching
I don't believe in Bible
I don't believe in Tarot
I don't believe in Hitler
I don't believe in Jesus
I don't believe in Kennedy
I don't believe in Buddha
I don't believe in Mantra
I don't believe in Gita
I don't believe in Yoga
I don't believe in Kings
I don't believe in Elvis
I don't believe in Zimmerman
I don't believe in Beatles
[Verse 3]
I just believe in me
Yoko and me
And that's reality
[Verse 4]
The dream is over
What can I say?
The dream is over
Yesterday
[Verse 5]
I was the dream weaver
But now I'm reborn
I was the Walrus
But now I'm John
[Verse 6]
And so dear friends
You just have to carry on
The dream is over
