Instant Karma Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Instant karma's going to get you
Going to knock you right on the head
You better get yourself together
Pretty soon you going to be dead
What in the world you're thinking of
Laughing in the face of love?

What on earth are you trying to do?
It's up to you - yeah you

Instant karma's going to get you
Going to look you right in the face
Better get yourself together darling
Join the human race
How in the world you going to see
Laughing at fools like me?
Who in the hell do you think you are?
A superstar? Well, right you are


[Chorus]
Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well we all shine on
Everyone come on

[Verse 2]
Instant karma's going to get you
Going to knock you off your feet
Better recognize your brothers
Everyone you meet
Why in the world are we here?
Surely not to live in pain and fear
Why in earth are you there
When you're everywhere?
Come and get your share
[Chorus][x2]
Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well we all shine on
Come on and on and on on on

[Verse 3]
Yeah we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the s
Yeah we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
