"Heartburn Stew" (by Ono):

I threw my woman power in a pot of stew
And waited for my love to come
But not a single word did I hear from him
So I tried the stew on my dog
But he wouldnt even eat it.

I put my light heart on a matching silver plate
And waited for my love to come
But not a single footstep was heard near the door
So I ate the plate myself
And got a heartburn

Heartburn, heartburn plate
Heartburn, heartburn cake

I toasted my pride and covered it with apple jam
And waited for my love to come
But not a single sign of a stir or a breeze
So I soaked the bread in my milk
And I gave it to the birds

Heartburn, heartburn plate
Heartburn, heartburn cake

I watched the clock ticking, ticking away to my past
Eight years old, birthday and raindrops
Not a single line from my dad or my mom
So I laid the cake on my cat
But she wouldnt even touch it

Heartburn, heartburn stew
Heartburn, heartburn blues

What do I want with a heartburn, I ask you
Don't try to give me the word
Cause I ask a clever question
And I get a silly answer

God I loved Linda. She was a LEGEND, just like Yoko.

[TheDeathOfAFowl]

I heard this also, and let me tell u if u think about it it makes perfect sense

[dabrixtonbomba]

FACT: Yoko wrote this song about Linda McCartney, cos meat gave her heartburn and she used to eat it off plates, so she instead started eating carrot cake and became vegetarian.

What on EARTH is this? What a load of shit.
