| Strawberry Fields Forever
(Lennon/McCartney)
Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry
Fields. Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about. Strawberry Fields
forever.
Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you
see. It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out, it doesn't matter
much to me. Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry
Fields. Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about. Strawberry Fields
forever.
No one I think is in my tree, I mean it must be high or
low. That is you can't you know tune in but it's all right, that is I think
it's not too bad. Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry
Fields. Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about. Strawberry Fields
forever.
Always, no sometimes, think it's me, but you know I know when
it's a dream. I think I know I mean a 'Yes' but it's all wrong, that is I
think I disagree. Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry
Fields. Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about. Strawberry Fields
forever. Strawberry Fields forever.
In Penny Lane there is a barber showing photographs Of
every head he's had the pleasure to have know. And all the people that come
and go Stop and say hello.
On the corner is a banker with a
motorcar, The little children laugh at him behind his back. And the banker
never wears a mack In the pouring rain, very strange.
Penny Lane is in
my ears and in my eyes. There beneath the blue suburban skies I sit, and
meanwhile back
In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass And
in his pocket is a portrait of the Queen. He likes to keep his fire engine
clean, It's a clean machine.
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my
eyes. A four of fish and finger pies In summer, meanwhile
back
Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout The pretty nurse
is selling poppies from a tray And tho' she feels as if she's in a
play She is anyway.
In Penny Lane the barber shaves another
customer, We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim. And then the
fireman rushes in From the pouring rain, very strange.
Penny lane is
in my ears and in my eyes. There beneath the blue suburban skies I sit,
and meanwhile back. Penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes. There beneath
the blue suburban skies, Penny Lane.
It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the
band to play They've been going in and out of style But they're guaranteed
to raise a smile. So may I introduce to you The act you've known for all
these years, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. We're Sgt. Pepper's
Lonely Hearts Club Band, We hope you will enjoy the show, We're Sgt.
Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Sit back and let the evening go. Sgt.
Pepper's lonely, Sgt. Pepper's lonely, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club
Band. It's wonderful to be here, It's certainly a thrill. You're such a
lovely audience, We'd like to take you home with us, We'd love to take you
home. I don't really want to stop the show, But I thought that you might
like to know, That the singer's going to sing a song, And he wants you all
to sing along. So let me introduce to you The one and only Billy
Shears And Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
A little help from my friends What would you think if I
sang out of tune, Would you stand up and walk out on me? Lend me your ears
and I'll sing you a song, And I'll try not to sing out of key. I get by
with a little help from my friends, I get high with a little help from my
friends, Going to try with a little help from my friends. What do I do
when my love is away. (Does it worry you to be alone) How do I feel by the
end of the day (Are you sad because you're on your own) No I get by with a
little help from my friends, Do you need anybody, I need somebody to
love. Could it be anybody I want somebody to love. Would you believe in
a love at first sight, Yes I'm certain that it happens all the time. What
do you see when you turn out the light, I can't tell you, but I know it's
mine. Oh I get by with a little help from my friends, Do you need
anybody, I just need somebody to love, Could it be anybody, I want
somebody to love. I get by with a little help from my friends, Yes I get
by with a little help from my friends, With a little help from my
friends.
Picture yourself in a boat on a river, With tangerine
trees and marmalade skies Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly, A
girl with kaleidoscope eyes. Cellophane flowers of yellow and
green, Towering over your head. Look for the girl with the sun in her
eyes, And she's gone. Lucy in the sky with diamonds. Follow her down to
a bridge by a fountain Where rocking horse people eat marshmellow
pies, Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers, That grow so
incredibly high. Newpaper taxis appear on the shore, Waiting to take you
away. Climb in the back with your head in the clouds, And you're
gone. Lucy in the sky with diamonds, Picture yourself on a train in a
station, With plasticine porters with looking glass ties, Suddenly someone
is there at the turnstyle, The girl with the kaleidoscope eyes.
I read the news today oh boy About a lucky man who made
the grade And though the news was rather sad Well I just had to laugh I
saw the photograph.
He blew his mind out in a car He didn't notice
that the lights had changed A crowd of people stood and stared They'd seen
his face before Nobody was really sure If he was from the House of
Lords.
I saw a film today oh boy The English Army had just won the
war A crowd of people turned away but I just had to look Having read
the book.
I'd love to turn you on
Woke up, fell out of
bed, Dragged a comb across my head Found my way downstairs and drank a
cup, And looking up I noticed I was late. Found my coat and grabbed my
hat Made the bus in seconds flat Found my way upstairs and had a
smoke, Somebody spoke and I went into a dream
I read the news today oh
boy Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire And though the holes were
rather small They had to count them all Now they know how many holes it
takes to fill the Albert Hall.
I'd love to turn you on
Love, Love, Love. Love, Love, Love. Love, Love,
Love.
There's nothing you can do that can't be done. Nothing you can
sing that can't be sung. Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play
the game. It's easy.
Nothing you can make that can't be made. No
one you can save that can't be saved. Nothing you can do but you can learn
how to be you in time. It's easy.
All you need is love. All you
need is love. All you need is love, love. Love is all you need.
All
you need is love. All you need is love. All you need is love,
love. Love is all you need.
Nothing you can know that isn't
known. Nothing you can see that isn't shown. Nowhere you can be that isn't
where you're meant to be. It's easy.
All you need is love. All you
need is love. All you need is love, love. Love is all you need.
All
you need is love (All together, now!) All you need is love.
(Everybody!) All you need is love, love. Love is all you need (love is all
you need).
Yee-hai! Oh yeah! She loves you, yeah yeah yeah. She
loves you, yeah yeah yeah.
I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all
together. See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly. I'm
crying.
Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to
come. Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday. Man, you been a
naughty boy, you let your face grow long. I am the eggman, they are the
eggmen. I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob.

eye. Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess, Boy, you been a naughty
girl you let your knickers down. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen. I
am the walrus, goo goo g'joob.
Sitting in an English garden waiting for
the sun. If the sun don't come, you get a tan From standing in the English
rain. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen. I am the walrus, goo goo
g'joob g'goo goo g'joob.
Expert textpert choking smokers, Don't you
think the joker laughs at you? See how they smile like pigs in a sty, See
how they snide. I'm crying.
Semolina pilchard, climbing up the Eiffel

Day after day alone on the hill, The man with the foolish
grin is keeping perfectly still, But nobody wants to know him, They can
see that he's just a fool, And he never gives an answer, But the fool on
the hill Sees the sun going down, And the eyes in his head, See the
world spinning around.
Well on his way his head in a cloud, The man of
a thousand voices talking percetly loud But nobody ever hears him, Or the
sound he appears to make, And he never seems to notice, But the fool on
the hill . . . Nobody seems to like him They can tell what he wants to
do. And he never shows his feelings, But the fool on the hill . .
.

Lady Madonna, children at your feet. Wonder how you
manage to make ends meet. Who finds the money? When you pay the rent? Did
you think that money was heaven sent?
Friday night arrives without a
suitcase. Sunday morning creep in like a nun. Monday's child has learned
to tie his bootlace. See how they run.
Lady Madonna, baby at your
breast. Wonder how you manage to feed the rest.
See how they
run. Lady Madonna, lying on the bed, Listen to the music playing in your
head.
Tuesday afternoon is never ending. Wednesday morning papers
didn't come. Thursday night you stockings needed mending. See how they
run.
Lady Madonna, children at your feet. Wonder how you manage to
make ends meet.
Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it
better. Remember to let her into your heart, Then you can start to make it
better.
Hey Jude, don't be afraid. You were made to go out and get
her. The minute you let her under your skin, Then you begin to make it
better.
And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain, Don't carry
the world upon your shoulders. For well you know that it's a fool who plays
it cool By making his world a little colder.
Hey Jude, don't let me
down. You have found her, now go and get her. Remember to let her into
your heart, Then you can start to make it better.
So let it out and
let it in, hey Jude, begin, You're waiting for someone to perform
with. And don't you know that it's just you, hey Jude, you'll do, The
movement you need is on your shoulder.
Hey Jude, don't make it
bad. Take a sad song and make it better. Remember to let her under your
skin, Then you'll begin to make it Better better better better better
better, oh.
Naaa na na nananana, nanananaaa hey Jude... (repeat X
number of times)

to wait Don't you know it's gonna be
alright? Alright? Alright?
You say you'll change the
constitution Well you know We all want to change your head You tell me

alright? Alright? Alright?
Alright! (repeat X number of times)

I look at you all see the love there that's
sleeping While my guitar gently weeps I look at the floor and I see it
needs sweeping Still my guitar gently weeps I don't know why nobody told
you how to unfold your love I don't know how someone controlled you They
bought and sold you.
I look at the world and I notice it's
turning While my guitar gently weeps With every mistake we must surely be
learning Still my guitar gently weeps I don't know how you were
diverted You were perverted too I don't know how you were inverted No
one alerted you.
I look at you all see the love there that's
sleeping While my guitar gently weeps Look at you all... Still my
guitar gently weeps.
