Lyrics - I Just Shot John Lennon by Cranberries

It was a fearful night of
December 8th
He was returning home from the studio late
He had perceptively known that it wouldn't be nice
Because in 1980, he paid the price
John
Lennon died...
With a
Smith and
Wesson 38
John
Lennon's life was no longer a debate
He should have stayed at home
He should have never cared
The man who took his life declared:
He said, "
I just shot
John
Lennon,
I just shot
John
Lennon"
What a sad and sorry and sickening sight
What a sad and sorry and sickening night...
