When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide
Where I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
‘Til I get to the bottom and I see you again
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Do you, don't you want me to love you
I'm coming down fast but I'm miles above you
Tell me, tell me, tell me
Come on tell me the answer
Well you may be a lover but you ain't no dancer
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Will you, won't you want me to make you
I'm coming down fast but don't let me break you
Tell me, tell me, tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer
When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide
And I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
And I get to the bottom and I see you again
Well do you, don't you want me to make you
I'm coming down fast but don't let me break you
Tell me, tell me, tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer
You say you want a revolution, well you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution, well you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out...in
Don't you know it's gonna be
All right
Don't you know it's gonna be
All right
Don't you know it's gonna be
All right
You say you got a real solution, well you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution well, you know
We're all doing what we can
But if you want money for people with minds that hate
Well, all I can tell you is brother, you'll have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be
All right
Don't you know it's gonna be
All right
Don't you know it's gonna be
All right
You say you'll change the Constitution, well you know
We'd all love to change your head
You tell me it's the institution, well you know
You'd better free your mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao
You ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know it's gonna be
All right
Don't you know it's gonna be
All right
Don't you know it's gonna be
All right
She was a working girl
North of England way
Now she's hit the big time
In the U.S.A.
And if she could only hear me
This is what I'd say
Honey pie
You are making me crazy
I'm in love but I'm lazy
So won't you please come home
Oh honey pie
My position is tragic
Come and show me the magic
of your Hollywood song
You became a legend of the silver screen
And now the thought of meeting you
Makes me weak in the knee
Oh honey pie
You are driving me frantic
Sail across the Atlantic
To be where you belong
Honey pie come back to me .
Will the wind that blew her boat
Across the sea
Kindly send her sailing back to me?
Honey pie
You are making me crazy
I'm in love but I'm lazy
So won't you please come home
Creme tangerine and montelimat
A ginger sling with a pineapple heart
A coffee dessert--yes you know it's good news
But you'll have to have them all pulled out
After the Savoy Truffle
Cool cherry cream and a nice apple tart
I feel your taste all the time we're apart
Coconut fudge--really blows down those blues
But you'll have to have them all pulled out
After the Savoy Truffle
You might not feel it now
But when the pain cuts through
You're going to know and how
The sweat is going to fill your head
When it becomes too much
You're going to shout aloud
But you'll have to have them all pulled out
After the Savoy Truffle
You know that what you eat you are
But what is sweet now, turns so sour
We all know Obla-Di-Bla-Da
But can you show me, where you are?
Creme tangerine and montelimat
A ginger sling with a pineapple heart
A coffee dessert--yes you know its good news
But you'll have to have them all pulled out
After the Savoy Truffle
Yes you'll have to have them all pulled out
After the Savoy Truffle
Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
The king of Marigold
Was in the kitchen cooking breakfast
For the queen
The queen was in the parlour
Playing piano for the children
of the king
The king was in the garden
Picking flowers for a friend
who came to play
The queen was in the playroom
Painting pictures for the childrens
holiday
Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry
The duchess of Kircaldy
Always smiling and arriving
late for tea
The duke was having problems
With a message at the local
bird and bee
Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry
At twelve o'clock a meeting
‘round the table for a seance
in the dark
With voices out of nowhere
Put on ‘specially by the children
for a lark
Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby
Cry cry cry cry baby
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry
Cry cry cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry
[Can you take me back where I came from?
Can you take me back?
Can you take me back where I came from?
Brother can you take me back?
Can you take me back?
Mm can you take me where I came from?
Can you take me back?]
Technically, there are lyrics of a sort in John Lennon's avant garde piece of tape loops and bizarre sound effects. Every time you listen to it, you pick up some other interesting snippet of speech. One day, I will post some of them here, but that will have to wait a while
Now it's time to say good night
Good night, Sleep tight
Now the sun turns out his light
Good night Sleep tight
Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you
Close your eyes and I'll close mine
Good night, Sleep tight
Now the moon begins to shine
Good night, Sleep tight
Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you
Close your eyes and I'll close mine
Good night, Sleep tight
Now the sun turns out his light
Good night, Sleep tight
Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you
Good night Good night Everybody
Everybody everywhere
Good night
