This song is written by John Lennon recorded by Plastic Ono band. Basically this song is just saying about how the world needs to give peace a chance. They are sick of the violence and fighting and beleive that peace should start spreading throughout the world. They also talk about different people and how they are talking about people and how everyones just talking which causes more fighting. If people stopped talking about other people and just focused on peace the world may experience some of it once in a while.
