“"Theyve forgotten all about god
Hes the only reason we exist
Yet you were the one that they said was
So weird
All those years ago
You said it all though not many had ears
All those years ago
You had control of our smiles and our tears
All those years ago"

I remember when this song came out. I got the album & fell in love with George, even though he was a pacifist. This was also the time when Mom went thru a strict Pentecostal stage & burned my Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult, KISS & Alice Cooper albums. She couldn't touch George...my father wouldn't let her. "He was a Beatle for Christ-sake" Thanks, Pops!
