Midweek Music Lyrics

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion too

Imagine all the people living life in peace, you

You may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope some day you'll join us

And the world will be as one

John Lennon - Imagine

Joke of the day:

Yesterday I saw a guy spill all his Scrabble letters on the road.
