I was never a Beatles fan, but lately I've been looking at their lyrics, I think they were on to something (and possibly on something haha)
Instant karmas gonna get you Gonna knock you right on the head You better get yourself together Pretty soon your're gonna be dead What in the world you thinking of Laughing in the face of love What on earth you tryin to do Its up to you, yeah you
Instant karmas gonna get you Gonna look you right in the face Better get yourself together darlin Join the human race How in the world you gonna see Laughin at fools like me Who in the hell dyou think you are A super star Well, right you are
Well we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun Well we all shine on Evryone come on
Instant karmas gonna get you Gonna knock you off your feet Better recognize your brothers Evryone you meet Why in the world are we here Surely not to live in pain and fear Why on earth are you there When your're evrywhere Come and get your share
Well we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun Yeah we all shine on Come on and on and on on on Yeah yeah, all right, uh huh, ah
Well we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun Yeah we all shine on On and on and on on and on
Well we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun Well we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun Well we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun Yeah we all shine on Like the moon and the stars and the sun
The Beatles' music was absolute genius, both in the music itself, and in its lyrics. In my opinion, they are unsurpassed in their ability to have captured the spirit of an entire generation, and those following still enjoy their legacy.

The Beatles were my all time favourite, still are to this day. Our friend, Piers, the fellow we had dinner with last night, has three Beatles anthologies published and is considered to be one of the countries leading authorities on all things related to the Fab Four.
Moore, yes, they were genius! It still surprises me today how well they could put to music what so many of us were thinking at that time.
