This song appeared on the album of the same name published in 1971. Although the theme is credited exclusively to Lennon, is known the participation of his partner Yoko Ono in the lyrical concept.
According to Lennon the song was "anti-religious, anti-nationalist, anti-conventional, anti-capitalist, but it is accepted for its sweetness.
Perhaps within the inspiration that John had to compose this song, violent situations influenced him because he was born on October 9, 1940, during a German bombing in Liverpool, England and also a writing by Yoko from 1965 where he printed "Imagine a raindrop" and "imagine the clouds dripping".
