Quotes/entries for ‘Lennon, John’

 

He’s a real Nowhere Man,
Sitting in his Nowhere Land,
Making all his nowhere plans
For nobody.
Doesn’t have a point of view,
Knows not where he’s going to,
Isn’t he a bit like you
And me?

John Lennon (1940-1980) English rock musician, singer, songwriter
“Nowhere Man” (song) (1965) [with Paul McCartney]
