OLD MAJOR' S SPEECH VS "IMAGINE" BY J.

LENNON 
“Imagine” by John Lennon John Lennon recorded the song “Imagine” in 1971. His ideas and beliefs were
influenced by protests against America at the war in Vietnam in the 1960s. He had spent some time in
India learning about Hinduism and Buddhism. The song is about world peace.  
  
  
  
Imagine there’s no heaven It’s easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people
Living for today…  
  
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…  
  
Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger A brotherhood of man Imagine
all the people Sharing all the world…  
  
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.
