Once the screaming fucking idiots shut the fuck up, you can sorta hear it alright.

seriously?! i had no idea anyone had ever covered this song, much less one of my OTHER favorite artists!!! this is my abso-fave song off of plastic ono band, and all the songs on there are amazing!! thanks so much!!
Wow.
Wish I could've heard/understood all the lyrics changes, though. And did anybody catch what he sings after "I just believe in me?" (Where Lennon sang "Yoko and me," what is Brian singing?)
And how I wish the video went on about 10 more seconds, at least...
Brian's:
The dream is over, what can I say
The dream is over, yesterday
We were the fab ones, but now it is gone
I was the gentle one, but now I must be strong
And so dear friends we'll just have to carry on
The dream is over
The dream is over, no matter what they say
The dream is over, it has to be this way
We played in springtime, but now I play in fall
We hit the bigtime, but now we are small
And our dear friend let's hope he has it all, still
The dream is over
I don't believe in magic
I don't believe in pain
I don't believe in heroes
I don't believe in fame
I don't believe the newsprint
I don't believe we're free
I don't believe in nations
I don't believe in pride
I don't believe in pressure
I don't believe we're right
I don't believe in torture
I don't believe in fight
I don't believe in colour
I don't believe in white
I don't believe in history
I don't believe in being Queen any more
I just believe in me
Just you guys and me
And that's reality
Yes the dream is over
Dream on
John's:
God is a concept by which we measure our pain
I'll say it again
God is a concept by which we measure our pain
I don't believe in magic
I don't believe in I-Ching
I don't believe in Bible
I don't believe in tarot
I don't believe in Hitler
I don't believe in Jesus
I don't believe in Kennedy
I don't believe in Buddha
I don't believe in mantra
I don't believe in gita
I don't believe in yoga
I don't believe in kings
I don't believe in Elvis
I don't believe in Zimmerman
I don't believe in Beatles
I just believe in me
Yoko and me, and that's reality
The dream is over, what can I say?
The dream is over, yesterday
I was the dream-weaver but now I'm reborn
I was the walrus but now I'm John
And so dear friends you'll just have to carry on
The dream is over.
