Written December 9th 1980...
John Lennon was my favorite Beatle and was making a come back.
Mark David Chapman hated John Lennon and planned to take his life and did.
The song is called Only Love Should Grow because John preached love.
The words tell the story....."Standing in the hall back against the wall, laughing to yourself cause he don't know" Chapman was a coward. He waited for Lennon to come home, then emptied his gun, killing him. I was so heart broken and angry. I wrote it with anger and compassion, but the only compassion was in Lennons words of love.
Chapman left Hawaii and went to New York, he bought a 38.
"you knew so long ago that you would ruin the show, it ended when you bought that 38. With Jealousy and rage, you forced yourself on stage, you want us all to be..aware that you're MC"......I wouldn't use Chapmans name in the song, he deserved on fame from me even though that's why he did it.
Stay away from me MC
