Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And if there's someone you can live without
Then do so
And if there's someone you can just shove out
Well, do so
[Verse 2]
You can be my Yoko Ono
You can follow me wherever I go
Be my, be my, be my, be my
Yoko Ono, whoa oh
[Verse 3]
Oh, isn't it beautiful
To see two people
So much in love?
Barenaked as two virgins
Hand in hand
And hand in hand in love
[Verse 4]
Now that I'm far away
It doesn't seem to me
To be such a pain
To have you hanging
Off my ankle
Like some kind of ball and chain
[Verse 5]
You can be my Yoko Ono
You can follow me wherever I go
Be my, be my, be my, be my
Yoko Ono, whoa oh (Be my Yoko)
[Verse 6]
Oh no, here we go
Our life is just one big pun
Ono, here we go
As Yoko sings, oh-oh-oh
[Verse 7]
I know that when I say this
I may be stepping on pins and needles
But I don't like all these people slagging her
For breaking up the Beatles
Don't blame it on Yokie
I mean, if I was John, and you were Yoko
I would gladly give up musical genius
Just to have you as my very own personal Venus
[Verse 8]
You can be my Yoko Ono
You can follow me wherever I go
Be my, be my, be my, be my
Yoko Ono, whoa oh
[Verse 9]
Be my, be my, be my, be my
Yoko Ono, whoa
Be my, be my, be my, be my
Yoko Ono, whoa
Be my, be my, be my, be my
Yoko Ono, whoa, whoa, oh
