No Bed For Beatle John

No bed for Beatle John
Beatle, John Lennon
Lost his hospital bed yesterday, to a patient

It happened at Queen Charlotte's hospital, London
Where John was keeping vigil in the room
Where his girlfriend Yoko Ono
Is being kept under observation
When he realised his bed was needed for an urgent case
John sent out for a sleeping bag
And last night
He was once more happily kipped down, alongside Yoko
In the sleeping bag

Yoko, who expects a baby next February
Will remain in the hospital for another few days
A beatle spokesman said
There is a good chance for the baby's survival

The Beatles win battle of the nude lp
The Beatles have won their fight to put
Out an LP record with a sleeve showing
John Lennon and Yoko Ono in nude

EMI the world's biggest recording company
Whose artists include the Beatles
Refused to handle the LP called Two Virgins because of the sleeve
So did the group's American outlet, Capitol Records

But the record with its controversial sleeve
Will be released in both countries next month
An official of the Beatles' apple company said last night
The sleeve has not yet been censored or altered in anyway
We're pleased it has been distributed but it may be that some record shops may still refuse to handle it
