Dear John
i dreamed about you
last night
you were in Moscow
playin' with your band
you were alive
but your audience was dead
seem to forget
about the livin'
think you're so smart
but you're not
you should better
pay more attention
to other people
dear john
soon you'll be lying dead in the ground
dear john
soon you'll be facing your god
and then he will know
that you're just his little john
that you're not Nick Cave
you're not so smart
dear john
dear john
let the music undertake your ass down
soon you will be gone
dear john
soon you will be gone
you should pay more attention
to other people
you're not so
above the ground
dear john
you're not so smart
dear john
had a dream about you
last night
saw your men
at your funeral
you were lying dead in the ground
but i saw some smiles
on their faces
ooh dear john
i laughed up on the clouds
because i don't love
people like you, john
you're so full of your self
dear john
you know what we do to
people like you, john
people like you
dear john
we put them down in the ground
people like you
dear john
we put them down in the ground
people like you
dear john
we put them down in the ground
way down
remember the day you died
dear john
everybody was so happy
even i
your god
dear john
your god
dear john
everybody was so happy
at your funeral
including myself
your mighty god
your god
dear john
your god
dear john
now you're down
dear john now
now you're down
just like you deserved
now you're not so smart
dear john
not so smart dear john now
go to sleep dear john now
pray for heaven john now
pray for heaven john now
