The Fool On The Hill
Day after day,
Alone on a 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 'round.
Well on the way,
Head in a cloud,
The man of a thousand
voices talking perfectly loud;
But nobody ever hears
him,
Or the sound he apperars
to make,
And he never seems to
notice.
But The Fool On The Hill
sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
see the world spinning 'round.
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
sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
see the world spinning 'round.
He never listens to them
He knows that they're
the fools,
They don't like him,
The Fool On The
Hill sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
see the world spinning 'round.
Oh, round and round and
round.
Flying
La la la la
la.
La la la la
la.
La la la la
la.
La la la la
la.
Ah, ah, ah.
Blue Jay Way
There's a fog upon L.A.,
And my friends have lost
their way.
"We'll be over soon,"
they said.
Now they've lost themselves
instead.
Please don't be long.
Please don't you be very
long.
Please don't be long,
Or I may be asleep.
Well it only goes to show,
And I told them where
to go.
Ask a p'liceman on the
street,
There's so many there
to meet.
Please don't be long.
Please don't you be very
long.
Please don't be long,
Or I may be asleep.
Now it's past my bed I
know,
And I'd really like to
go,
Soon will be the break
of day,
Sitting here in Blue
Jay Way.
Please don't be long,
Please don't you be very
long,
Please don't be long,
Or I may be asleep.
Please don't be long,
Please don't you be very
long,
Please don't be long.
Please don't be long,
Please don't be very
long,
Please don't be long.
Please don't be long,
Please don't you be very
long,
Please don't be long.
Don't be long,
Don't be long,
Don't be long, don't
be long.
Don't be long,
Don't be long,
Don't be long.

I Am The Walrus
I am he as you are he

And we are all together.
See how they run, like

See how they fly.

Dripping from a dead

Waiting for the sun.
If the sun don't come,

From standing in the
English rain.

Googoo g'joob g'ggogoo

See how they snied.

Climbing up the Eiffel

Element'ry penguin singing
Hare Krishna.

Strawberry Fields Forever
Let me take you down 'cause
I'm goin' 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 goin' 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 know you
can't tune in but it's all right.
That is, I think it's
not too bad.
Let me take you down 'cause
I'm goin' to
Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real,
And nothing to get hung
about.
Strawberry Fields Forever.
Always know sometimes
think it's me,
But you know I know when
it's a dream.
I think a "No" will be
a "Yes", but it's all wrong.
That is, I think I disagree.
Let me take you down 'cause
I'm goin' to
Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real,
And nothing to get hung
about.
Strawberry Fields Forever.
Strawberry Fields Forever.
Strawberry Fields Forever.
Penny Lane
Penny Lane there is a
barber showing photographs
Of ev'ry head he's had
the pleasure to have known,
And all the people that
come and go
Stop and say hello.
On the corner is a banker
with a motor car;
The little children laugh
at him behind his back.
And the banker never
wears a mac
In the pouring rain,
very strange!
Penny Lane is in my ears
and in my eyes,
Wet 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,
Full of fish and finger
pies in summer.
Meanwhile back behind
the shelter in the middle of the roundabout,
The pretty nurse is selling
poppies from a tray.
And tho' she feels as
if she's in a play
She is anyway.
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.
Baby You're A Rich Man
How does it feel to be
One of the beautiful
people?
Now that you know who
you are,
What do you want to be?
And have you travelled
very far?
Far as the eye can see.
How does it feel to be
One of the beautiful
people?
How often have you been
there?
Often enough to know.
What did you see when
you were there?
Nothing that doesn't
show.
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
too.
You keep all your money
in a big brown bag
Inside a zoo.
What a thing to do.
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
too.
How does it feel to be
One of the beautiful
people
Tuned to a natural E?
Happy to be that way.
Now that you've found
another key
What are you going to
play?
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
too.
You keep all your money
in a big brown bag
Inside a zoo.
What a thing to do.
(Baby!) Baby, You're A
Rich Man,
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
too. Oh!
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
too.
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
Baby, You're A Rich Man,
too.
All You Need Is Love
Love, 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.
(ev'rybody)
All You Need Is Love,
love,
Love is all you need.
Love is all you need.
Love is all you need.
Love is all you need.
(repeat & ad lib to fade).
